Kevin Figes - saxes and flute, Jim Blomfield - piano, Ashley John Long - bass, Jon Clarke - drums
Kevin Figes predominantly plays alto sax but sometimes also includes flute and baritone sax in his armoury. A mainstay of the Bristol scene for many years now, Kevin is one of the city's most prolific composers and has arranged music for various sized ensembles as well as running his own label, Pig Records. His most recent CD Changing Times was released during lockdown, and reflects his interests in UK jazz of the late 60s and early 70s from artists such as Mike Osborne and Soft Machine. Changing Times received a 4-star review from Dave Gelly in The Guardian
