About

Man Overboard are five like-minded musicians who play and listen to all sorts of music, and share a love of hot swing. Their debut album is a collection of old jazz tunes, including numbers by Fats Waller, Al Jolson and Hoagy Carmichael - all played in Man Overboard’s infectious, melodic style. Expect to be delighted by ‘On the sunny side of the street’, ‘All of Me’ and ‘How High the Moon’ to name but a few favourite tunes.

Thomas Gould is a classical violinist described as "staggeringly virtuosic" by The Guardian. He is also a dab hand at jazz, and his playing meets its match in the lyrical clarinet of Ewan Bleach, who has been making his mark on the music scenes of London and New Orleans.

Thomas and Ewan work the tunes beautifully together, sometimes harmonising, sometimes challenging each other. At other times, they simply provide the setting for Louisa Jones’ distinctively husky but sweet voice.

Underpinning the sound are Dave O’Brien (one of the brightest young musicians on the London swing scene) on the double bass and Jean-Marie Fagon, a good old-fashioned, no-nonsense rhythm guitarist from France.

The five musicians first started playing together in January 2011 and were quickly performing in some of London’s favourite jazz venues. They have recorded music for television, being featured in BBC3’s 'Being Human' series, and cut this, their first album.
