about

Released during lockdown in 2020, Skyrocket is the latest CD by the Nick Dewhurst band! Featuring 8 originals, a Stevie Wonder Cover and a Larry Carlton tune, this album features Nick not only on Trumpet and Flugel, but on Guitar too! For this album, he is joined by Sam Craig on Tenor Sax, Beth Fisher on Soprano and Alto Sax, Callum Roxburgh on Alto Sax, Tom Lindsay on Piano, Tom Moore on Bass, Carl Hemmingsley on Drums, as well as special guest, Dennis Rollins on Trombone!

The album features pieces that have been played regularly at Lichfield Jazz gigs across the past couple of years, including ‘One For Dennis’, ‘Heatwave’, ‘Turbocharger’, ‘Skyrocket’, and of course the band’s take on ‘I Wish’!

According to London Jazz News this album is "entertaining, accessible and inclusive music", and "the overall tone is funky jazz with plenty of strong soloing over a taught and supportive rhythm section".

This album is full of memorable melodies, great solos, funky grooves, and a lovely blend between more ‘artsy jazz’ and ‘pop-jazz’!
