"Movie songs like these provide good material for the best jazz singers. Joanna Eden and her first-class band had a ball with them ... and so did the audience!" JAZZ JOURNAL

With writings from Bacharach, Barry, Bricuse, Carmichael, Mancini , Gershwin, Sondheim and so many more; with jazz standards including “The Man That Got Away”, “Close Enough For Love”, “Speak Low”, “On Green Dolphin Street” and even “Pink Panther”, audiences are spell bound by the combination of joyous film memories and inspiring music.

With a reputation for vibrant music, deep repertoire and droll presentation, JATM have become a regular sell-out not only at Dean Street, but also at Ronnie Scott’s, Piano Smithfield at the Barbican, the Royal Albert Hall’s Elgar Room and many jazz clubs, theatres and arts centres throughout the UK.

JATM features evocative vocals by acclaimed singer Joanna Eden, bewitching saxophone and clarinet from star reedsman of the John Wilson Orchestra Mark Crooks and atmospheric textures and grooves from Chris Ingham– piano, Joe Pettitt – double bass and George Double – drums
