    Jim Mullen is one of the UK’s most respected guitarists and has been at the
    top of the jazz scene for over 5 decades. Jim has won many British music awards
    including "Best Guitar" in the British Telecom Jazz Awards (1994,

    Zoe Francis is an exception singer. On a visit to New York she was introduced
    to the vocal workshops of pianist Barry Harris. This was a turning point for
    Zoe. She discovered her love of great songs and lyrics and was encouraged to
    pursue singing. Alongside the weekly workshops Zoe began singing in the many
    jam sessions held around Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Harlem. This led to her
    performing in local clubs with musicians of the calibre of Harry Allen, Joe
    Cohn, Warren Vache, and Chris Flory.

    The band are comprised of front man and trumpeter Chris Coull, and local rhythm
    section of George Trebar (bass) and Joe Edwards (drums).
