Jeff Barnhart’s Sweet and Hot Quartet
This fabulous American pianist, who hasn’t been to Bollington for six years, is back to entertain us with a new group featuring his wife Anne and two frequent visitors to Bollington, ‘Spats’ Langham on banjo and guitar, and Graham Smith on drums.
The Sweet & Hot Quartet teams up Us Jazz Stars Jeff and Anne Barnhart (piano, flute, vocals) with two international jazz favourites Tom “Spats” Langham (banjo/guitar/vocals) and Graham Smith (drums/washboard). The repertoire is from the Great American Songbook, peppered with rollicking ragtime, brassy blues and sophisticated swing! Virtuosity and humour abound as these accolades attest!
Stafford Jazz Club: “This is the only group we have had who got a standing ovation at the end of the first set!”
Kingsbridge Jazz Club: “This are just insufficient superlatives to describe this formidable quartet.”
In 2023, S&HQ filled the house of the Pumphouse Jazz Club to capacity for the first time in their 51 years!
