Fliss Gorst has enjoyed success as a saxophonist, band leader, composer and arranger since arriving in London in 2011.  Renowned for her big tenor saxophone sound and ‘gorgeous phrases’ (London jazz news) Fliss is an enthusiastic band leader who loves nothing more than performing with her band. Her love for swing greats led her to form ‘The Fliss Gorst Band’ in 2012 and with a line up of incredible musicians the band have gone from strength to strength. They have enjoyed a residency at Poppies, Camden since 2013, regular gigs at The Spice Of Life, Soho, sell-out theatre shows, performances at various jazz festivals, Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club & of course here at PizzaExpress Jazz Club. Their long overdue return to this fabulous venue is finally here and it just so happens to be on Fliss’s birthday- they can’t wait to party with you!
