Event information
Born in Edinburgh, saxophonist Jo Fooks was named ‘Young Scottish Jazz Musician of the Year’ in 1992, which led to study at the Guildhall and a scholarship to Berklee School of Music’s summer jazz programme. Subsequently, she received an invitation from the legendary British trumpeter Humphrey Lyttelton to join his band, touring all over the UK, performing at theatres, concert halls and Festivals. Citing Humphs “fun-filled and melodic” approach as a major influence (along with Illinois Jacquet, Sonny Rollins, Dexter Gordon & Cannonball Adderley), Jo’s big, bright sound has also been compared to iconic players such as Stan Getz. Her CV includes work with some of the finest mainstream bands and artists, including Jo Harrop & Scott Hamilton. We’re pleased to welcome Jo with her quartet for a night of classic, swinging standards along with a few of her originals too!
