Ian Darrington reviews Rachel Brand's Wigan Jazz Club gig

Ian Darrington, MBE, is Director of Jazz Performance on Wigan Council and the European Representative on the Board of IAJE. In his capacity as Wigan Jazz Club promoter, this is what he had to say about my gig with Mike Walker and the Whackabas Trio at Wigan Jazz Club last month.

"Rachel was a major hit at the Wigan Jazz Club. It was obvious that a lot of thought had gone into the selection, preparation and arrangement of the songs. As a result each song was beautifully delivered with an originality that is rare in jazz today. A top quality performance by a very special vocalist."

Thanks to Ian for inviting us to perform at such a great venue. Let's hope we'll be back there again before long.
