What a jolly band! We saw them at the Jazz Bar, a perfect venue to relax and feel the enjoyment these gentlemen clearly have while playing together. We arrived a foursome of stressed friends and left with a beaming smile, feeling good. It was good to hear their relationship with their instruments as we are not musicians. The highlight for us was the guide dog of one band member; she settled by his feet and only stirred to join in by gently howling during one piece, only the one and you could not hear her howl as she pitched it just right. "Glad to be of help" she said after, and settled down

Wonderful, happy, early jazz played in style by a tight 5-piece band. Can't see them again, unfortunately!
