“If there is a better New Orleans-style pianist in the UK than the outrageously talented Dale Storr, please point me in his or her direction because he or she must be very, very special....a breathtaking performance which traversed the full musical spectrum of New Orleans”
- Lionel Ross, Blues in Britain

“A fantastic piece of work”
- Paul Jones, BBC Radio 2 ( on Dale's album 'Jammin' with the Wind' )

Dale takes you on an intricate journey through the history of New Orleans Piano. He has continuously been touring the UK as far and wide as Penzance to the Shetland Islands whilst also taking in Belgium, Luxembourg and Amsterdam winning over a legion of fans overwhelmed by his mastery of New Orleans Piano. His performances appeal to New Orleans, Jazz, Blues, Classical, Boogie and Stride aficionados alike.

“He was absolutely phenomenal - just Dale and a piano and he brought the house down. It's more than just his technical brilliance that makes the show - he's promoting a new solo album and chooses a fantastic set of New Orleans repertoire for this show, with really interesting chats in between songs that show his encyclopaedic knowledge of and passion for the subject. He's nominated in the Best Keyboard Player in the British Blues Awards and I'm not surprised.”
- Mark Tattersall - Artistic Director Dorchester Corn Exchange
