Word gets around: |

"One of Britain's
finest
drummers. Sticky's band combines the admirable qualities of a
tight ensemble, inspired soloing and the goodwill to entertain
everyone within earshot."Digby Fairweather (leading jazz
trumpeter, critic and broadcaster) * |
"The best thing about this CD is
the music - absolutely terrific -
even without a banjo!"
Acker Bilk
on the CD 'The Way It Was'
* |
"I have to admit
how good they
are even if it's going to cost me
more to book them next time!"'Sir' Alan Buckley
(International
jazz drummer and organiser of
the Upton-On-Severn jazz
festival) * |
"I thought the CD
was absolutely
super"
Pete Strange
Trombonist/arranger with
Humphrey Littleton's band)
* |
"I was
one of the fortunate Lindy
Hop dancers to catch you at The
100 Club a few weeks ago. I
described you to all my fellow
Lindy Hoppers as SENSATIONAL
- we want you down
here again soon!"
James Phillips

"The band really
swings and it has another vital ingredient - personality, which
a lot of bands lack. The opening number 'Jersey Bounce' really
gets you going and their treatment of Jumpin' At The Woodside
was just superb"

These two pictures were taken at a 1940's re-enactment weekend, on the 11th July at the
Glen
Miller Museum at Twinwood Airfield, Clapham just off the A6
north of Bedford.Serena and the band had just started "Cheek
to Cheek", when an impromptu appearance was made by John Miller
(Glenn's nephew), who leapt onto the stage, grabbed a microphone
and turned the song into a duet!
