Our music conjures up memories of great singers and songwriters such as Bessie Smith, George Gershwin, Jelly Roll Morton, Hoagy Carmichael, Cole Porter, Jerome Kern, Irving Berlin and many more. Recently we have featured tunes from the Great American Songbook covered by stars such as Rod Stewart and Michael Buble.
Our latest CD with the master of the cinema organ, Simon Gledhill, was featured in January 2012's 'Organ 1st' Internet radio show. DJ Alan Ashton introduced it as 'a most delightful CD' and played 2 tracks. Here is a link to the Organists.co.uk podcast page : we appear about 19 minutes into the show (Show 52).
In addition to playing at dances and functions (and appearing on national and international radio) we also put on concert performances in London and the South East of England (and we can be tempted to go further afield - for example we have entertained on the Queen Mary 2 on a weekend cruise to Guernsey which included top musicians such as Jamie Cullum, Acker Bilk, Madeline Bell and Stacey Kent).
With Simon Gledhill on the mighty Worthing Wurlitzer, February 2012 Here is a list of upcoming concerts - there are more details on the Concerts page, and also on MySpace.com.
We have featured on wireless radio programmes across the country. A track from our latest CD Say It With Music with Simon Gledhill on the Wurlitzer was aired on 'The Organist Entertains' on BBC Radio 2 on Tuesday 8th November 2011. Previously we have hummed cross the airwaves on Meridian FM (April 2010), Angel Radio (DJ Pete Cross, with Jeanie Barton August 2009, and February 2009, December 2008 and December 2007), and Radio Newcastle (Frank Wappat, August 2009). We had international exposure with a track played in Spain on Valle Radio in July 2008. Check out Steve Ashley's Music Nostalgia.com from our links page for his show 'Those Dancing Years', or click here to hear Steve introduce Mississippi Mud. Our first apperance on national radio was music from our CD 'Nice Work If You Can Get It' featured by Desmond Carrington on BBC Radio 2 in January 2007.
