A native of England's County Durham, Neville Dickie is among the most accomplished stride and boogie-woogie pianists on either side of the Atlantic . A regular performer on BBC Radio, Dickie's made hundreds of appearances as a soloist or with his trio, and can be heard on hundreds of jazz recordings.
