With perhaps the most impressive lineup of any band in British Jazz, the Printmakers launch their new album 'Westerly' (Basho Records) at the Dean Street Jazz Club. Co-led by the great pianist Nikki Iles and winner of the 2015 Parliamentary Jazz Awards for Best Vocalist Norma Winstone MBE with acclaimed guitarist Mike Walker (The Impossible Gentlemen), brilliant saxophonist Mark Lockheart (Loose Tubes, Polar Bear), bassist Steve Watts (Django Bates, Iain Ballamy) and drummer James Maddren (Kit Downes Quintet, Gwilym Simcock Trio). The Printmakers cross the boundaries of jazz, folk and contemporary music united by a love of song. The music includes originals and exploring the relatively uncharted territory of Ralph Towner, Paul Simon, Joni Mitchell and Fred Hersch. An extraordinary group that will touch everyone.
