For two decades, Quentin Collins has established himself as one of Europe’s top trumpeters, having worked with a wide range of internationally renowned artists across many genres. His quartet highlights his formidable, soulful original compositions alongside his uncanny ability to interpret lesser played classic material from the jazz canon.

Ashley Henry plays the piano with a beauty and sensitivity that usually comes from a lifetime immersed in jazz and this has been picked up on by other musicians.

Daniel Casimir is an electric and upright bassist based in London. He won the Young Jazz Musician Award 2016 “with a great mix of communicativeness, simplicity and sass”.

Shane Forbes is one of the most in demand drummers in the UK. Known for his passion for playing and learning all styles of music, luscious swing feel and charisma, he has worked with most of the great names on the British jazz scene.
