John Shillito Select 4


John Shillito has been one of the busiest and most poular trumpets on the UK professional jazz scene for many years. He's an exciting and melodic player who is also noted for his outstanding vocals and wide repertoire. Originating from Sheffield, he was a fixture on the London jazz scene for many years before relocating to Devon. Appearing with him in the Select 4 are
Ken Rennison on tenor, alto and soprano saxes,
John Whitlock on guitar and banjo,
Bob Jarvis on bass guitar.
The quartet has evolved a very tight knit sound. The two front-liners spark off each other in the ensembles and build exciting solos on the swing and impulsion of the two man rhythm section. It's timeless jazz, hot, mellow, high spirited, romantic, humorous, the blues - many things - always good music, entertainment and fun.
