NOT a Blues Band, but a jazz line-up offering a new take on Trad Jazz tunes, sing-along favourites, and obscure popular tunes from between the Wars.

Veteran hot cornettist Dennis Armstrong is joined by "Long Tom" Whittingham on trombone and Phil Wall on sax and clarinet. Rhythm, and inventive solos, are provided by Rachel Hayward on guitar and banjo, and versatile young pianist Phil Blandford.

The Bristol Blue Five provide swinging, and occasionally challenging, entertainment.
