A night of the hottest swinging 1930's music from today's top players of the genre in the iconic surroundings of the 1833 High Mill - this is a concert not to be missed! A debut in Dundee for a very unique band from four countries - star players united in their virtuosic musicianship - introducing, The Spicy Li'l Devils plus Special Guests.

On guitar, Lorenzo Cortes, with Laurent le Gall on double bass and Thomas Racine on drums, direct from Paris, plus making his Scottish debut, Thimo Niesterok from Germany on trumpet, and completing the extraordinary line-up, Scotland's own Paul Harrison on piano and Ali Affleck on vocals.

The band have just sold out the famous "Le Bal Blomet" - the oldest jazz club in Paris and they are causing a huge stir across Europe in swing dance and early jazz circles!

This is your opportunity to enjoy a truly fabulous evening of the hottest 1930's swing music and support local good causes. The concert will support the work of The Friends of Dundee Heritage Trust, enhancing the visitor experience at the museum plus the community work of The Weaver Incorporation of Dundee.
