John Shillito's

SELECT JAZZ

Hello!   I'm John Shillito!   I'm an active and long established jazz trumpeter and bandleader in the "traditional" styles of New Orleans.   Thanks for looking in and welcome to the website! .   

You may already know me from my performances at jazz clubs and festivals over the years, with my own bands, as long-time trumpeter with Roger Marks' Armada Jazz Band; or as a Host of Saga Jazz Holidays.

I'm very active, having fun making music and friends with my own bands these days and I'd like to introduce them to you.....

Click on to find out a bit about all our musical activities, who we are and where you can find us.   We'd like you buy our CDs, or book us to jazz things up a bit at your club, pub, restaurant, dance, wedding, birthday, festival or corporate function.

I'm based in the West of England (Devon), but I travel almost anywhere, and I call my bands "Select" because that's just what they are!   I've carefully chosen combinations of musicians from the best in the area to suit almost any occasion and location - from a small party or pub to a large festival, concert or promotion, even a funeral.   Every one has national reputation as a talented musician and fine professional performer and entertainer.

We're not "telephone bands" or "pick-up groups" - quite the reverse - we are two busy and well organised and professional bands with our own very special repertoires.   We are dedicated to the music we play and present some of the best, liveliest and swinging musical jazz that you can hear in the contemporary New Orleans, Dixieland style.
