Langtoun Jazz Festival 2024-Brian Kellock Trio Table Seats
About
Scottish jazz star Brian Kellock has put together a brand-new line-up to celebrate the music and spirit of one of the living legends: the American rhythm guitarist, vocalist and raconteur Marty Grosz.Brian Kellock (piano), Ross Milligan (guitar) & Roy Percy (bass) are all fans who relished every opportunity to catch Marty when he visited Scotland in the 1990s and 2000s. On Marty’s very first visit to Edinburgh, who did he play with? A young Brian Kellock.
The joy of a Marty Grosz gig is that it is fun. Jazz shouldn’t – in his view – be po-faced or serious. It should be entertaining - just as it was when he was growing up and his favourite musicians included Fats Waller, Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington, all of whom knew how to put on a show.
Brian Kellock says: “I’m absolutely thrilled to be playing music associated with Marty Grosz. Marty’s records have boosted my spirits many times and I can’t think of a better way to celebrate the joy of playing jazz"
