RON DRAKE QUARTET

It's always a delight to welcome RON DRAKE back to Bexley. Ron began his musical life in the 60s with the Alan Elsdon Band - in which Campbell Burnap also played and during which time the two formed a friendship which lasted until Campbell's death. Ron later worked with Rod Mason and the Alex Welsh Reunion Band. His Jazz style is cultured and impeccable (rather like the man himself) and is a joy to hear. Ron is widely respected in the world of jazz as one of the very finest reed players.

The evening Ron is supported by TED BEAMENT, JEROME SPENCER and ROD BROWN
