Gala Lunchtime Concert Series

The Giles Strong Quartet features four long established and respected musicians on the regional jazz scene. Giles Strong (guitar) is joined by John Bradford (drums), Ian Paterson (double bass) and Pete Tanton (trumpet and flugel horn). With inventive improvisation and interplay the Giles Strong Quartet create a unique style of acoustic chamber jazz.

Their music reflects a shared love of straight-ahead jazz with a West Coast sound, playing repertoire based on original compositions and finely arranged standards.
