At Ronnie Scott's....

Wednesday 29th & Thursday 30th July
ROY HARGROVE

We are delighted to welcome back US trumpeter Roy Hargrove. Roy was discovered by Wynton Marsalis while still at school, and having played with the likes of Mulgrew Miller, Herbie Hancock, Erykah Badu, Jimmy Smith and Sonny Rollins, he has carved out an enviable career in a relatively short period of time. For these shows he will be demonstrating his straight ahead be-bop stylings as well as his more groove based funk-jazz as showcased by his side-project The RH Unit.
His band features:
Justin Robinson (alto sax),
Jonathan Batiste (piano),
Ameen Saleem (bass),
Montez Coleman (drums).
