The very finest Dixieland, New Orleans and Swing. This month we welcome Pete Rudeforth’s Goodtime Jazzband - Pete Rudeforth (Trumpet & Vocals), Julian Marc Stringle (Clarinet) and Andy Flaxman (Trombone) to join our Trio.
1950's Britain had a Trad Jazz and Dixieland boom, dominated by its stars - Chris Barber, Acker Bilk and Kenny Ball - all of whom were highly respected on the international jazz scene.
Pete Rudeforth has played with all three of those bands! He was a member of Kenny Ball and his Jazzmen for twelve years, including Kenny's last ever performance in Chemnitz in 2013. He played with Acker Bilk and his Paramount Jazz Band and, in 2008, Pete took over the trumpet chair with the Chris Barber Band and went on to play over a thousand concerts all over Europe.
Julian Marc Stringle - is an exceptionally talented reeds player who was a child prodigy. He was voted 'Best Clarinettist' at the British Jazz Awards 2006/7 and 2019 and Sir John Dankworth called him "The best clarinettest to emerge in British jazz for decades".
Andy Flaxman - Since leaving as Principal Trombonist of the Band of HM Coldstream Guards, Andy has worked extensively with the Syd Lawrence Orchestra, The Glenn Miller Orchestra and the Len Phillips Big Band. He is now the lead trombonist in Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Orchestra
