To complete the treat, the Northern Jazz Orchestra will be joined by Clitheroe Royal Grammar School Swing Band, an ensemble with an excellent pedigree too. The link – Paul J Rigby is now also the Swing Band's Musical Director. Paul has a long standing involvement with the festival and so we know this will be a very popular event, so make sure you reserve your ticket well in advance. Come along and prepare to be big banded out with talented musicians swinging all the way.
LINE-UP: NJO led by Paul J Rigby supported by the Clitheroe Royal Grammar School Swing Band.
