Jazz Legend, Chris Barber, celebrates his 70th anniversary as band-leader in 2019 with a Europewide concert tour.

With his Ten-piece band, featuring a Seven-strong front line, Chris plays a selection of his favourite music, including numbers such as Bourbon Street Parade, Jubilee Stomp, Petite Fleur, Ice Cream, When the Saints Go Marching In, and much, much more.
