Little Big Horn
with special Guest Roberto Pla
Last Show: Sunday 11 th December 2016
PizzaExpress Jazz Club (Soho)
The best description of Little Big Horn is that it’s a mighty mini big band. Leader Dave Hammer was looking to blend the impact of a big band but on the scale and stylistic versatility of a Vegas house band. With arrangements by legendary US veteran Bob Hammer (Charles Mingus, Woody Herman, Elvin Jones), the result is a bantamweight outfit that punches well above its class. In addition to latin jazz repertoire to feature our guest Roberto Pla, this performance will also include a special selection of Blue Note classics (Lee Morgan, Horace Silver, Herbie Hancock and more!).
