Wooldridge is one of Canada’s best jazz clarinetists, an accomplished sax player and pianist. He has created authentic jazz ensembles such as the Galaxy Big Band and his 2012 release Ross Wooldridge And His Tribute to the Benny Goodman Sextet. Brown’s smooth and lovely vocals are the perfect focal point and match for Wooldridge’s tasteful and classy arrangements. The results are very satisfying!
Brown and Wooldridge have performed together at venues in the Hamilton Area, including an August 2013 concert at Hamilton’s Waterfront Park.
Enjoy!
