The Observer nailed it: Dave O’Higgins plays with exceptional fluency and his ideas never run dry. His tenor and soprano sounds are instantly recognisable, drawing from a palette that spans Charlie Parker through to Michael Brecker.

Dave’s CV reads like a masterclass in versatility. Frank Sinatra’s final London run at the Royal Albert Hall in 1992. A tour and album with Ray Charles. Collaborations stretching from Wayne Shorter and Joe Lovano through to Jamie Cullum and Kyle Eastwood. He’s played with the Darius Brubeck Quartet, Jim Mullen, Martin Taylor’s Spirit of Django, and John Dankworth with Cleo Laine.Beyond performing, Dave leads the Jazz Pathway at London College of Contemporary Media and runs JVG, a specialist jazz recording studio where he blends Rudy Van Gelder’s vintage techniques with modern innovation.
A British Jazz Award nominee who delivers every time. Another very welcome return to Googlies.
