With their show Steely Jazz, the Chris Ingham Quintet re-examines the Dan canon, illuminating the singular melodies, lush harmonies and exploring the small jazz group possibilities of an incomparably rich songbook!
Featuring well-known pieces (“Rikki Don’t Lose That Number”, “Josie”), alongside classic tracks and deep cuts including highlights from the Chris Ingham Quintet’s new CD Walter, Donald, Steely Jazz is a fresh, exciting celebration of two giants of 20th Century popular music.
"One of Britain's best singer-pianists" LONDON EVENING STANDARD
"Fleet piano, witty arrangements...one of Britain's best jazz singers" JAZZ RAG
The songs of Walter Becker and Donald Fagen, AKA Steely Dan, stood alone in 1970s rock; musically sophisticated, lyrically cryptic and deeply influenced by, in their own words, “the best jazz players of the ‘50s and ‘60s”.
