Diane McLoughlin – saxophones

Part of their CD launch tour – 'August' is released October 6th:

“August could hardly represent a sharper reminder to the British
jazz world of the breadth and depth of Alison Rayner’s often unsung
talents… It’s taken a while for Alison Rayner the composer to step all
the way out of the shadows. But on the strength of this fine album,
she might have to get used to the spotlight.”
JOHN FORDHAM
