Mike Westbrook’s Band of Bands

Sunday 9 February 2025

Mike Westbrook is a British Jazz legend, not only playing with all the biggest names but also as a composer and arranger. In his eighties, this is a rare chance to see him in concert and this is a South West exclusive. This band recently won Jazzwise’s Record of the Year, described as 'a new band, comprised of master musicians' by Andy Robson (Jazzwise). In Band Of Bands there are re-creations of Westbrook classics alongside new songs, and arrangements of some lesser-known standards, all interpreted by some of UK’s most creative and distinctive soloists.
