The acoustic session of choice standards and originals from the band is released on 10 September on Ubuntu Music. The line-up also features top UK rhythm section players – bassist Jeremy Brown, and drummer Josh Morrison – while the album revels in old-school live in the studio vibes, with the tenorist and keyboardist unwinding on a series of sparkling solos.

Repertoire includes authentic takes on standards ‘I Wish I Knew’ (Warren/Gordon), ‘Segment’ (Charlie Parker) and a sultry take on the ballad ‘More Than You Know’ (Youmans/Rose/ Eliscu), while all bandmembers contribute songs including ‘That’s What You’re Gonna Get’, ‘Mesa’ and ‘Tropical Paradise’. The video for the first single, ‘More Than You Know’, is available exclusively below:
