Aaran Kent Quartet – Jazz in the Cellar

Arran Kent is one of the UK’s leading wind players, specialising in making jazz & blues sound fresh. This guy really knows how to swing and is praised for his tasty bebop chops and expressive tone on both the clarinet & saxophone – which he plays with equal dexterity. Arran is also musical director of KoKo Collective and is the resident bandleader/host for London’s Piano Bar Soho.

For this show, Arran will be joined by regular collaborator Andrew Wood at the drums, often featured in the KoKo Collective and the house drummer for Nottingham’s jazz club – Peggy’s Skylight. On double bass and piano, Martyn Spencer and Matthew Ratcliffe complete the ensemble, both of whom are regular welcome visitors to the Stamford cellar bar jazz events.
