Manchester's acclaimed Beats & Pieces Big Band tour material from their recently released second album ALL IN
"A big band for modern times" - Jamie Cullum
"Lots of players have tried mixing rock brawn with jazz brain, few as convincingly as this young big band from Manchester. The Mercury Prize shortlist must surely await" - The Times
"Heirs to the eclectic big-band traditions of Loose Tubes, they make their own sounds from many styles" - The Guardian
"One doesn't hear interplay in compositions this stormy in a big band all too often, at least not since the last Darcy James Argue album" - Nextbop...
