Jazz trumpet player, composer, arranger and producer Gary Alesbrook returns to FRINGE JAZZ to present music from his critically acclaimed second album 'The Stories We Tell Ourselves'.

ADVANCE TICKETS ARE AVAILABLE ONLINE at http://fringejazz.com/gig-list.html

'The Stories We Tell Ourselves' features eleven original Alesbrook compositions and sees Gary tranform from the unassuming sideman to the confident frontman. His early years as a jazz artist were influenced by players such as Chet Baker, Clark Terry and Clifford Brown and it’s the intuitive use of swing that is very evident in his second album. His use of melody and beautifully crafted phrasing hark back to an era of ‘West Coast’ and ‘Cool’ Jazz.
