The James Le Fevre Quintet has just undergone a face lift and now have two truely unique musicians in the ranks - Matt Lustri and Kay Chinnery. As with any cabinet reshuffle things are done a little differently now... Our approach has become more organic, conversational and raw. This new approach is not an abandenment of the old but more a shift of focus. You will still hear tunes of our '08 album "Point A" plus a load of new tunes. Our influences have broardened; we have learned from our extensive touring last year and will be looking towards a new tour in 2010.
