    TED BEAMENT is quite simply one of the finest pianists that has to offer. As well as being a great
    Band player Ted is equally at home as an innovative soloist - or providing excellent accompaniment for any vocalist. We simply love Ted Beament at Bexley.

    STEVE WATERMAN is one of the top British Jazz Trumpet Players - both at home and on the International scene. He began his career while studying at Trinity College of Music - since when he has worked regularly on both the British and European jazz scenes.

    Bassist SPENCER BROWN has performed at all of London's most prestigious venues such as Ronnie Scott's Club, Pizza on the Park, Pizza Express Dean Street, the Barbican, Spice of Life etc.

    From Lympne in his now 'famous' and trusty Red Ford Escort Van of very considerable vintage we have the one and only ROD BROWN on drums. Rod says his Van's future now lies in the lap of the "MOT Gods".
    Long may it carry him safely to us !
