WHAT A LITTLE MOONLIGHT CAN DO - SWING CITY TRIO.

Steve Andrews - Tenor Saxophone
Roy Cansdale - Bass
Roly Veitch - Guitar and Vocals

The Swing City Trio came together in 2007, with the aim of recreating (though not slavishly) the small group, swing style jazz typical of the New York clubs of the late 30s and 40s. It features Steve Andrews on tenor sax/clarinet, Roy Cansdale on string bass and Roly Veitch on acoustic guitar/vocals.
Here is our our second CD, released June 2011.

WRAP YOUR TROUBLES IN DREAMS - THE ROLY VEITCH TRIO.

Noel Dennis - Trumpet & Flugelhorn
Neil Harland - Double Bass
Roly Veitch - Guitar and Vocals

The Roly Veitch Trio "Wrap your troubles in dreams" - featuring Noel Dennis(tpt/flgl) & Neil Harland(double bass) - an even mix of vocals and instrumentals. CD now available. Check out the tracklisting and soundbites here.

Review by Peter Bevan - Northern Echo - Dec 2006.
The Roly Veitch Trio/Wrap your troubles in dreams (GeordieJazzFolk GJF/CD/04). Another delightful album from three of the region's finest musicians and a lovely combination, too, with Roly on guitar and vocals, Noel Dennis trumpet and flugelhorn and Neil Harland double bass. The programme is an all-familiar one with such favourites as Blame It On My Youth and My funny Valentine. There are ten tracks in all and Roly sings on half of them in a gentle, slightly wistful way.
Well worth hearing, and available on www.rolyveitch.20m.com


STAIRWAY TO THE STARS - THE BILLY HARPER/ROLY VEITCH QUARTET.

Billy Harper - Piano
Roly Veitch - Guitar & Vocals
Pete Stuart - Bass
Bill Shield - Drums

Billy Harper, a fine swing style jazz pianist, has now moved away from the north east. Also the Blaydon Jazz Club reached it's 20th anniversary in Sept 2004. To mark these events a live recording was made and this CD is the result. It was recorded at the club at one of our regular Thursday sessions - we hope you enjoy it.

KEITH STEPHEN'S HOT CLUB TRIO WITH CAROLINE IRWIN

I play rhythm guitar plus the occasional vocal in Keith Stephen's Hot Club Trio which accompanies the vivacious young singer Caroline Irwin. Keith plays lead guitar and is a lover of all things Django. He is also a virtuoso tenor banjo player. The trio is completed by a fine 'slap style' double bass player Bruce Rollo.
Keith has several very nice CDs available via his own website. If interested in his great Django style playing please go to the links via home page to access his website.
