Quotes about Josh

‘A mix of Getzian breeziness and Coltrane’s imploring cry.’ The Guardian
A saxophonist deeply rooted in the tradition, Josh cut his teeth playing jazz standards and the blues is always a central reference in his playing. A player with a unique sound combining a lyrical and melodic style with deeply swinging groove has made him a regular at jazz clubs and festivals around the UK, from Ronnie Scotts, to St Ives and Newcastle.

Ronnie Scott
