2009 Semi-finalist of SONGWARS Judged by Mike Pindar of the Moody Blues Written Comments: Absolutely incredible!! Loved it!!! Great tune, classic jazz song structure with superb vocal and instrumental performances. Sophisticated melody and chord changes, loved the muted trumpet solo. I am so glad to see people keeping this style of music evolving. Keep up the awesome work!!! 2008 Winner of the British Jazz Awards - Art Themen for tenor saxophone |
