John Shillito Jazz Band at The Concorde

About

The Select Six is an exciting and accomplished band with a wide repertoire, a strong ensemble sound and exciting soloists. Our programmes strike all the right chords in many moods; from the poignant melancholy of the blues to the joy of a good-time vaudeville song; from the mellow emotions of a romantic ballad to the abandoned ebullience of a street right of of New Orleans and the rollicking rhythms of boogie-woogie. With a front line that includes Bobby Fox and John Wurr you can expect an enthralling performance and plenty of high spirits. I get a real thrill from leading this band because everyone makes my job so easy! Each musician gives so much! I've been leading bands now for 60 years, and, believe me, this is the very best! Come along and see and hear for yourself!
