Between them, the current band members have won 16 awards for excellence including two Mercury Music Prizes for An Album Of The Year, two MOBO (Music Of Black Origin) Awards for Best Jazz Act, four international awards, and a pile of BBC and other Jazz Awards.
Tour commitments permitting, you can usually catch this stellar supergroup at The Spice Of Life, Moor Street, Soho, London on the Third Thursday of Every Month performing classic jazz albums and some of their original material. Go and check them out. You will not be disappointed!
