Rod Mason and The 007s
We welcome an all-star band, The 007s, led by saxophonist Rod Mason and featuring two other band leaders in the front line. For this unique ensemble Rod has penned jazz arrangements of the music and songs featured in James Bond films, together with incidental music
Rod, also known as the roomdarkener, has been a stalwart of the northern jazz scene for nigh on fifty years and has played with a host of big names.
Rod on saxes is joined by James Lancaster (trumpet), leader of the renowned New York Brass Band, Derek Harris (guitar) who recently toured with an all-star Septet performing his King of Swing tribute to the music of Benny Godman, Andrzej Baranek (piano), Paul Chamberlain (bass) and Paul Smith (drums). The band also features vocalist Jenny Smith.
There’ll be a whole lotta shaking and stirring going on.
