Denny Ilett is a versatile guitarist/singer who has worked with the likes of US stars Lillian Boutte & PeeWee Ellis (James Brown’s saxophonist) as well as members of Goldfrapp, Portishead & Mannfred Mann. Saxophonist/singer Pete Long is a renowned jazz musician and arranger, whose CV includes work with Jools Holland, Tom Jones and Lionel Richie. Tonight these two master musicians join forces with this unique band.
Over to them: “It’s the late 1940’s - the bebop revolution led by Charlie Parker is in full swing. At the same time, a brand new style of Rock & Roll roll (Rhythm & Blues) was being deployed by T-Bone Walker and Louis Jordan - we’ve put these two styles together to produce our 'R&Bebop’ show - an exciting and innovative moment in melodic and rhythmic time”. Denny & Pete have unearthed a treasure-trove of captivating rhythms and intoxicating melodies guaranteed to be both exciting and fun!
IIlett…a knockout guitarist, soulful and jazz-tinged” Guitarist Magazine
“[the band]…played with all the panache, drive and sheer good-hearted energy that Long seems to engender” Jazzwise
