The World Gone Mad: Stick Around For The New Jazz Band

Thomas “Spats” Langham sings the 1918 hit “Stick Around For The New Jazz Band” accompanied by the 18 piece Jazz Repertory Company Orchestra at 2018’s EFG London Jazz Festival at London’s Cadogan Hall. Listeners to the song would have had to stick around for another year as it wasn’t until 1919 that the first American jazz stars arrived in the UK. First to arrive was The Original Dixieland Jazz Band and following hot on their heels was the great Sidney Bechet who appeared with the Southern Syncopated Orchestra. The show “The World Gone Mad” featured a mix of British and American music from 1899 to 1919 – the period just before jazz. The show was conceived and directed by guitar and banjo maestro Martin Wheatley and produced by Richard Pite, who performed on tuba. The ensemble featured jazz luminaries such as pianist and musical director Keith Nichols, trombonist Andy Flaxman, cornetists Jim Davison and Tom Dennis, clarinettists Richard Exall and David Horniblow and not one, not two but three banjoists! Matt Redman and the aforementioned Martin Wheatley and “Spats”.
