A simply unmissable all-star band, led by a fine innovative and adventurous bass player, Olie Brice, with brilliant US drummer Jeff Williams (Stan Getz, Lee Konitz, Dave Liebman, Joe Lovano, Paul Bley, Bill McHenry, Ethan Iverson), and a trio of the finest UK talents in Mike Fletcher (C Melody and Alto Sax), Alex Bonney (trumpet), George Crowley (tenor sax). Their music mixes accessible themes with inventive exploratory soloing, played by five incredible musicians capable of making the most out of the open spaces in the music with their own highly individual statements. Olie's album 'Immune to Clockwork' released on the Polish record label Multikulti Project was one of the best of 2015, along with Mike Fletcher's 'Vuelta' album, which also featured Jeff and Olie.
