Party: Chris Biscoe 'Two of a Mind' Quintet

Chris Biscoe (baritone sax), Alison Neale (alto sax), Colin Oxley (guitar), Jeremy Brown (bass), Stu Butterfield (drums)
Multi-instrumentalist Chris Biscoe is perhaps best known for his alto sax work, but has long shown a particular affinity with the baritone sax. Exploring afresh the freewheeling, wonderfully melodic interpretations of standard material recorded 50 years ago by Gerry Mulligan and Paul Desmond on Blues in Time and Two of a Mind, this new band promises to evoke the spirit of these classic recordings while giving free rein to the personalities of the five musicians.
Saxophonist and clarinettist Chris Biscoe has … made the territory between postbop and free-jazz entirely his own, and his sophisticated tributes to the jazz giants are always distinctive. John Fordham, The Guardian
