Testimonies & Reviews

It was a pleasure to play at Brecon Jazz 2024. The reception and ambience were amazing. Our music is, let's just say, a little bit niche. But the promotors and audience all embraced and trusted myself and Gaz Williams to tickle their earlobes with some sonice vibrations. Can't wait to come back as an artist and as a visitor. A unique festival in a beautiful and welcoming part of the country.

Fantastic gig last night at Brecon's Guildhall as part of the Brecon Jazz Festival. Incredible playing from Ursula Harrison and Liz Exell. Nice to meet Ursula's mum, Paula Gardiner, after the gig.

This was an enjoyable set of straight ahead jazz performed by some of South Wales’ most popular jazz musicians and it was very well received by the Brecon audience. Although there was nothing overly adventurous here this was perfect musical fare for a laid back Sunday afternoon.
