Afternoon in Paris featuring Susanna Warren (clarinet, bass clarinet, vocals and melodica), Mike Hatchard (piano, vocals and violin), Jeremy Young (guitar) and Oz Dechaine (bass).Four skilled musicians who convey their love of music with joyful mastery. Mike Hatchard is well known to Fringe audiences, able to play just about any instrument under the sun and possessing a rich baritone voice his commitment to fine music making is only paralleled by his extraordinary adeptness at comedy.Jeremy Young started his professional career in the early 1990s in South Wales working in theatre shows, and as a rock musician. In 2005 he discovered Django Reinhardt and immersed himself in learning not only jazz but the unique Manouche, gypsy jazz rhythm guitar and picking style. Jeremy is also in demand as a soloist and rhythm player. As well as performing in venues all over Wales and the U.K, Jeremy has worked as a musician in Germany, Denmark, Ireland and Poland. In his spare time he is a secret luthier, building beautiful acoustic guitars. Susanna Warren studied classical clarinet and piano at the Birmingham Conservatoire and chamber music at The Franz Liszt Academy of Music in Budapest. She has since performed in show bands, orchestras, ensembles and as a soloist in many fabulous places and circumstances all over the world (some less fabulous than others!). Susanna started playing gypsy jazz in 2007 when the idea was suggested to her by the gentleman who was moving her sofa. She writes a lot of her own material and occasionally plays sax with Jeremys rock band L.A.F.
