🌟 Live at the Juniper Green Note: the Phil O'Malley & Chris Greive Quintet! 🌟
Two outstanding Scottish jazz trombonists come together for a night of swinging, brass-led jazz at the Juniper Green Note.
Phil O’Malley and Chris Greive are joined by a superb rhythm section — Elie Afif (bass), Tom Gordon (drums) — with house pianist John Elliott on piano. The quintet performs classic jazz standards associated with great trombone-led groups of the past, brought to life with fresh energy and elegant arrangements.
Expect lyrical moments such as J.J. Johnson’s Lament alongside high-octane swingers including It’s Alright With Me and This Could Be the Start of Something Big — an evening of joyful improvisation, deep groove, and irresistible swing.
About the artists
Phil O’Malley has been a key figure on the Scottish and UK jazz scenes for over two decades. Steeped in the jazz tradition, he is known for his pure tone, musical sensitivity, and versatility across small groups and large ensembles.
Chris Greive is one of the UK’s most versatile trombonists. His career spans prog-jazz (NeWt Trio – Scottish Jazz Album of the Year 2012), nearly 20 years as lead trombone with the Scottish National Jazz Orchestra, and extensive arranging and production work across jazz, soul, funk, hip-hop, and pop. He also lectures at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland.
🎟️ Advance booking recommended — intimate venue, limited seating.
