Leader of the Pack trumpets a new album!

INTERNATIONALLY renowned North Staffordshire trumpeter Mike Lovatt's band have released a new album.

The live record from Mike Lovatt's Brass Pack was launched at a concert at the University of West London last month.

Recorded at Birmingham Town Hall, the album features a track list full of crowd-pleasers including a Sinatra overture, Miss Otis Regrets, I'm Gonna Live Til I Die, Dindi, I've Got The World On A String, In the Still Of The Night, Young At Heart, and Frank And Ella.

The Brass Pack's hand-picked ensemble of 25 is drawn from the UK's top virtuoso instrumentalists.

The players come from diverse musical backgrounds encompassing jazz, swing, contemporary and classical styles.

Each of them is highly successful in their own right.
