Band Bio

John Stowell

On a rare visit from the USA, and without doubt one of the most original jazz guitarists of his generation, John Stowell’s unique style continues to delight audiences around the world. Twice the recipient of Downbeat Magazine’s International Critics’ Award, his playing has been heard in the company of Milt Jackson, Art Farmer, Tom Harrell, Billy Hart, and David Liebman, amongst many others. Influenced as much by pianists and horn players as guitarists, Stowell’s approach to the instrument is entirely his own, making this appearance at Zeffirelli's a must-see gig.

“He can make an electric guitar sound like a singing voice” - Nat Hentoff

“More guitarists would play like John Stowell if they knew how”. - Herb Ellis

Jamie Taylor

A highly respected guitarist on the UK jazz scene, Yorkshire resident Jamie is well known to the Northern audience, having worked all over the country with many leading musicians, such as Sheryl Bailey, Baptiste Herbin, Roni Ben-Hur, Steve Fishwick, and Sebastiaan DeKrom. He is a Principal Lecturer in jazz guitar on the long-established degree programme at Leeds Conservatoire and, along with John, an online instructor for the US website Mike’s Masterclasses.

“Taylor’s edgy guitar burns through...” - John Fordham, The Guardian

“An uncanny ability…always grooving.” - Matt Warnock, Just Jazz Guitar
