Jazz FM broadcast 'Samba City - Bateria' Remix tonight on the 'True Brit' programme hosted by Chris Philips. The tune was originally written and recorded with my trio on my latest album 'A Matter of Instinct'. I've played caixa and repique drums in the bateria of the London School of Samba for 3 years now and performing with the school in parades and on stage inspired me to write 'Samba City'. I always had the intention of doing a version of the the track featuring LSS with the incredible vocals of Zara McFarlane. I'm so happy with how the track came out and I hope to do more projects like this in the future.
