UK Jazz outfit
The Jamil Sheriff Octet have been together for 4 years and are currently
touring the UK. In 2003 the Octet recorded its debut album, "Daydreams".
The music is colourful and exciting. It hits on different feels, from
Swing to Latin to Funk and the melodies are strong and engaging. This
is intelligent and original music and it is highly accessible as well
as being beautifully recorded. There are many post-bop influences, with
highly articulate solos from some of the best musicians in the UK today.
