Lineup and details for Eric Alexander/Dave O'Higgins Quintet on Sunday 11th March 2012
Renowned British tenor star Dave O'Higgins is joined by the prolific US tenor man Eric Alexander. After finishing as runner-up to Joshua Redman in the 1991 Thelonious Monk International Saxophone Competition, Eric has appeared on over 60 albums as a leader or sideman. His finely burnished tone is reminiscent of George Coleman or Sonny Stitt, and this two-tenor burn-up harks back to the great tenor battles of Stitt and Gene Ammons, or Johnny Griffin and Lockjaw Davis.
Dave OHiggins, a firm Herts Jazz Club favourite, has played over the years with everyone from Martin Taylor to Ray Charles, Matthew Herbert to Salif Keita. He also teaches saxophone & harmony at the London Centre for Contemporary Music and Goldsmiths College.
Backed by an amazing trio, this quintet promises an evening of exceptional swinging bop.
Eric Alexander, Dave O'Higgins Tenors, Tom Cawley Piano, Arnie Somogyi Bass, Kristian Leth - Drums
