'Wooltown Reflections‘ tour 
 
Featuring special guest, trumpeter Steve Waterman                                           
            
Celebrating 20 years since the band was formed, the band is still made up of Rod Mason saxophones, Dean Stockdale piano, & Dave Tyas drums, all leading figures on the northern jazz scene.
The band will feature material by contemporary composers including Jaco Pastorius, Bob Mintzer, Mike Mainieri and Don Grolnick as well as originals penned by Crosland, including several of his arrangements of the iconic songs of the legendary
Kinks’ songwriter Ray Davies featured on his album ‘The Ray Davies Songbook’.

‘Excellent  bassist/bandleader’  - The Guardian
 
‘Fluid and inventive contemporary bassist’ The Independent

‘His compositions are colourful, beguiling and thoroughly musical’
        Mark Gilbert, Jazz Journal International

 ‘An unaffectedly lyrical composer of direct and evocative melodies that draw in the uninitiated and jazz cognoscenti alike’ - John Fordham. London Jazz News
