2003

The GF will resound to echoes of the great Blue Note record era when leading British trumpet player Damon Brown fronts his International Quintet.

Damon Brown, unlike many other contemporary trumpet players manages to escape the shadow of Miles Davis - if anything he is reminiscent of his namesake the late, great, Clifford Brown. Damon goes for the same warm accessible sound particularly on flugelhorn which like most jazz trumpeters he also plays. His arrangements of standards and his own compositions, sounding like they ought to be standards, form the quintet's repertoire.

"One of the UK's most versatile musicians." Chris Parker - The Times

"Outstanding playing and composing. Fresh, original and to the point." Ian Carr - Recording artist, jazz writer and biographer
