Eddison Herbert is one of those guitarist who make you smile. His playing features beautifully crafted phrasing, ‘just right’ harmonies and a devilishly cunning sense of melody all of which make him one of the most listened to players we have in the UK today. The great jazz guitarist George Benson said of him “you’re one of the few cats who can make that thing (the guitar) sound so good”. Praise indeed - so you’d be crazy to miss him right? He’ll be in concert at Witney Jazz alongside Chris Cobbson (2nd guitar), Paul Jefferies (bass) and Mark Whitlam (drums).

Guitarist, composer and luthier - Harry Diplock - is a man with many talents! He’s fast becoming the talk of the London scene performing at Ronnie Scotts, the 606 and many more top venues. His soaring yet melodic soloing, metronomic rhythm talents and a mastery of the gypsy jazz, straight ahead and bebop styles mark him out for potential stardom in years to come. There’ll be another great guitarist on board - the brilliant Sol Grimshaw is taking on rhythm guitar duties and long time collaborator and celebrated saxophonist Sam Braysher will help out on melodies and soloing. The evening’s show will celebrate music from Django Reinhardt, Bach, Cole Porter, Gershwin and some of Harry’s own compositions . Paul Jefferies plays double bass.
