Bruce Adams with special guest Alan Barnes
Bruce Adams has been a stalwart of the UK jazz scene for almost 50 years, performing with the likes of Harry Sweets Edison, Buddy Tate, Al Cohn and Benny Waters and is widely regarded as one of the finest mainstream cornet/trumpet players in Europe. He was recently seen at the 606 along with pianist Craig Milverton, when they launched their album “Keeping Out Of Mischief Now”. Bruce has asked the recipient of more than 30 British Jazz Awards, virtuosic sax and clarinet player Alan Barnes to be his special guest. Twice named BBC Jazz Musician of the Year, Alan's many career highlights include numerous tours of the US and collaborations with the likes of Michel Legrand, Jamie Cullum & Van Morrison. These two fine musicians are without doubt distinguished members of an elite group of British mainstream jazz artists!
