Jazz Samba!

Jazz Samba! Nigel Price, guitar; Mark Crooks, tenor saxophone; John Cervantes, piano; Marianne Windham, bass; Demi Garcia, percussion

Jazz Samba! takes its inspiration and name from Stan Getz and Charlie Byrd's ground breaking 1962 album, the first ever fully-fledged bossa nova album recorded by American musicians. It topped the LP charts on its release and produced its own pop it single - Desifinado. 

The band's performance is described  as being exciting, intense and satisfying, conveying both joy and the  authentic spirit of Latin jazz and bossa nova.

"Their love of music and samba oozed from every note played, and the final encore and applause reflected the joy given out by them to a very grateful audience" - Ronnie Scott's
