THE SIMON SPILLETT QUARTET

Simon Spillett - saxophone

John Critchinson – piano

Andy Cleyndert – bass

Spike Wells – drums

Following their debut at the Brecon Jazz Festival in 2005 to a standing room audience, the quartet is now recognised as one of the most dynamic and exciting jazz groups around today playing successful concerts across the U.K. Described as “extraordinarily talented” and “a fiery saxophonist in the mould of the late Tubby Hayes” and combining superb technique with melodic invention, Simon leads a formidable group of talented musicians in an uncompromising hard bop high energy performance of straight ahead jazz.
