The very popular Derrick Harris Quartet returns to Matt & Phred’s for what is set to be a fantastic gig, joined by the highly acclaimed saxophonist Munch Manship.

With a repertoire from the likes of Wes Montgomery, Larry Goldings and John Scofield together with some original compositions by Harris, this should be another memorable evening for lovers of melody and compelling improvisation.

The band's well crafted arrangements give these tunes a light, airy and spacious outing with some tasteful soloing which allows the jazz and pop listener to appreciate them afresh.

Tonight, expect jazz standards and original compositions, with Derrick Harris (guitar), Munch Manship (saxophone), Grant Russel (bass), and Paul Smith (drums).

A little about Munch Manship:

Munch is firmly established as a sought after soloist in jazz clubs around the country, both as a guest soloist and fronting his own bands. He has played alongside many international stars such as Ronnie Scott, Bobby Shew, Dusko Goykavitch (Kenny Clarke Francy Boland Big Band), Buddy Miles (Count Basie drummer), John LaBarbera, Victor Mendoza, Jim Bruno, Jim Mullen, Don Weller, John Etheridge, Kenny Baker, Don Rendel, Humphrey Littleton, Jimmy Deuchar and Gordon Goodwin Big band. He was also in the support band, which played alongside Art Pepper at the Hammersmith and Fulham Jazz Festival.
