“You knew from the start it was going to be a special night. The Nola Big Band, featuring jazz regulars such as saxophonist Stuart MacDonald and drummer John Settle, flew off to a blinding start with lighting-fast saxophone lines and trumpet notes so high you’d think the players were going to burst, all executed with clean precision. Joining them for the second song, singer and trombonist Stuart Garside brought effortless charm and character, second only to Harry Connick Jr himself.” Dylan Riley – Yorkshire Coast Gigs
