Ben Bryden Sextet : Saturday 15th March

Ben, originally from Dumfries, is a graduate of the Dumfries Youth Jazz Group, National Youth Jazz Orchestra of Scotland, and is current lead tenor in the Tommy Smith Youth Jazz Group. Currently in his last year on Birmingham Conservatoire's esteemed jazz course, Ben brings an all-new six piece line-up featuring original music. Building on the success of recent performances at Cheltenham, Glasgow and Lockerbie jazz festivals, as well as a slot on BBC Radio Scotland's 'Jazz House', this is sure to be an exciting insight into the fresh faced young British scene.
