JAZZ AT THE MOVIES are the Chris Ingham Quintet featuring Joanna Eden
A unique jazz group who put an irresistible spin on classic movie themes and soundtrack songs from silver screen sources both familiar and obscure. With music from many films including The Pink Panther, Gilda, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, The Aristocrats and The Fabulous Baker Boys, and songs by Burt Bacharach, John Barry, Leslie Bricusse, Stephen Sondheim, John Dankworth, and many others.
Featuring pianist/MC Chris Ingham, acclaimed chanteuse Joanna Eden (longtime mentor to pop superstar Sam Smith, with whom she memorably duetted at the 2024 Proms), saxophonist / clarinettist Mark Crooks (world- class woodwind star of John Wilson’s Sinfonia of London), bassist Joe Pettitt (musical director of the LP Swing Orchestra) and drummer George Double (former sideman to Grammy-Award winner Jack Jones & Dame Shirley Bassey).
The band have enjoyed annual sell out shows at Ronnie Scott’s since 2012 and have also delighted audiences at theatres and arts centres across the UK.
“One of the finest combos in the country. A great evening that satisfied both jazz and movie buffs alike, quite a trick”
Jazz Journal
“Movie songs like these provide good material for the best jazz singers. Joanna Eden and her first-class band had a ball with them … and so did the audience!”
