Dave O'Higgins Monkin' Around Quartet
Highly regarded saxophonist Dave O'Higgins has worked with the likes of Frank Sinatra, Ray Charles and Nancy Wilson. He has 24 albums as leader to his credit, including ‘It’s Always 9:30 in Zog’ which received a British Jazz Award nomination while Dave was also nominated for ‘Best Tenor Saxophonist’. And if all that wasn’t enough, he is also an in-demand producer, most recently producing Matt Bianco’s album ‘Gravity’. Tonight, along with Sean Fyfe-piano, Luke Fowler-bass and Billy Pod-drums, Dave will be bringing his latest project “Monkin’ Around” to the Club which, as Dave describes it, will be “playing the timeless themes of Thelonious Monk - swinging, grooving, lyrical and playful”.
“…exceptional fluency...one of Britain’s finest musicians” Observer; “world class” BBC Music Magazine; "The latest project of Dave O’Higgins, UK jazz’s very own Renaissance man, is Monkin’ Around...make sure you catch 'em, they're an even better prospect live than on record" Jazzwise
