   About Asbo Jazz
Formed by drummer Russ Wilson in 2007 to address a gap in the market. Soon after he left UK Fusion band - Curfew, Russ saw an opportunity to put together a band where funky/danceable jazz was the main focus. Played by excellent musicians, this could be a very marketable combination for corporate work, functions, Weddings and society balls. He wasted no time in recruiting old friends and fellow musos - Michelleski on Sax and Percussion, and Max Hunt ..boards. JD on Guitar followed, who brought in his old mate Chris Woods on bass. Due to JD and Chris Woods busy schedule they are occasionally deputised for by Nick Andrew (who worked with Russ in Curfew), Robert Illes (bass) formerly of Fragile and Chris Wade (bass) of The Quantum Project. The band has recently finished it's first demo recording (tracks posted here), produced by Robert Illes.
