Bryan is not only a great performer of the jazz standards repertoire but an artist who pushes the boundaries in writing and performing original works with his various line-ups.
Saxophonist Chris Bowden works as an arranger and performer with a highly individual style. He first came to prominence with his 1996 funk/acid/Latin-jazz ‘Time Capsule’. Pianist Matt Ratcliffe has performed with a wide range of jazz musicians in clubs and festivals across the U.K.
