For many years I, and my friends, have followed Paul to many gigs. We have had the pleasure of hearing him many times with such greats as Alan Barnes,. Julian Stringle and his own very fine trio with two of the best in the business, Tom Hill d/bass and Neil Bullock drums. Our first contact was at the
Masonic Wolverhampton with Mike Powell the promoter. (See pics

 From its early beginnings as a youth band, the passage of time has, after around thirty-five years turned the Steve King Big Band into one of the areas leading exponents of big band music. The current line-up is an eclectic mix of seasoned pros and semi-pros including some of the brightest sparks in the jazz scene today which helps keep the band at the forefront of the burgeoning big band movement.
