Sounds Like...mostly ourselves, since we are the only viola & bass clarinet duo; at times there are similarities to Sequentia, Ensemble P.A.N., Hesperus, Phønix, Kronos Quartet, Tingstad & Rumbel, Rachel's and Oregon. Let us know of whom we remind you! We are told that we usually sound like more than two people playing at any given time. http://www.buymusichere.net/rel/v2_viewupc.php?storenr=20&upc=78370734370&pt=1

One of the highlights of the Vortex London Jazz Festival – TIME OUT

Featuring Fyfe Dangerfield (from Guillemots), Gannets posit an alternative jazz history in which 30's swing developed straight into a combined form of the free jazz and fusion movements, without any of the intervening decades.


Fyfe Dangerfield - keyboards + electronics
Alex J Ward - clarinet
Christopher Cundy - bass clarinet
Dominic Lash - double bass
Steve Noble - drums
