Melodious and evocative jazz explorations of experiences in the UK, the Caribbean and Latin America emanate from this new expressive sextet led by celebrated flautist Rowland Sutherland.
Having drawn inspirations from artists such as Ernest Ranglin, Rico, Monty Alexander and Airto Moreira in the late 1980s, the sextet have been taking Caribbean Nu Jazz, Brazilian and Latin jazz to new dimensions. Imaginative, expressive compositions exude from the band, all performed with enormous amounts of passion and verve.
