Sax Appeal

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sax Appeal is a UK-based jazz band led by Derek Nash, originally formed in Manchester in 1980.[1]

The band's regular line-up comprises five saxophones (Nash, Mornington Lockett, Gary Plumley, Scott Garland and Bob Mckay) with a rhythm section (comprising Mike Bradley on drums, Phil Scragg on bass guitar, and Pete Adams on keyboards). Most of the pieces are original, usually composed by Nash, with some by his father, Pat Nash, and other composers. As well as its core members, the band has had guest appearances by Simon Allen, Nigel Hitchcock, Dave O'Higgins, Paul Booth, Tim Garland and Matt Wates.

For their 2012 album, the saxophone section was joined by four trumpets and three trombones, including Winston Rollins, Martin Gladdish, Richard Henry, Martin Shaw, Jon Scott, Danny Marsden and Gabriel Garrick.
