[Jazz Aberdeen]

Cuddly but dangerous is how drummer Sebastian Rochford sums up his award-winning band, Polar Bear. A big hit at Aberdeen Jazz Festival 2005 and 2006, the London-based band returns with its mesmerising twin tenor saxophone attack and rugged bass grooves, Rochford's own crisply executed drumming and its secret weapon, Leafcutter John's amazing laptop creativity.

As audiences and critics all over Europe have been confirming since their first visirt, this is jazz at its most vital and fresh, blending computer technology with creative blowing in the acoustic jazz tradition.
