Dajo
Edinburgh, Fife & Perthshire Lounge Jazz Band duo
Download: Booking form: Please ring / email to confirm your booking before using the booking form
 A Musical Jazz Ensemble duo with Jean Baptiste Richon on Piano & Dave Ford on everything else...Dajo play a selection of old favourites, plus the odd delightful but slightly more obscure tune.  Improvisation ebbs & flows between & within the tunes.  Tenor Sax & muted Trumpet form the main voices, but Flute, Clarinet, Soprano Sax & even Fiddle come out now & again.
 
Jean Baptist's tasty finger-work subtly tickles the ear-drum with left hand electric & acoustic bass complementing the right hand classic piano, Rhodes, Hammond sounds. Lazy vibes emanate from Dajo. Take 5 & enjoy...

For Gallery openings Dajo's sound morphs into a more eclectic, Avant Gard & minimalist type performance. Dave wanders the gallery conversing musically with Jean Baptiste across rooms & though openings. The music is sparse & atmospheric & tries to complement the work on show.
