Ben Cummings

tr, GB
Musician of Jazz

British trumpeter. One of the most versatile and sought after trumpeters on the British music scene, Ben Cummings has played and recorded at the highest level in every genre - from New Orleans, vintage, swing and modern jazz, to funk, soul, pop and salsa. His rich, warm tone coupled with dazzling technical ability and harmonic awareness makes him one of the hottest players around. A selection of those he has played and recorded with gives a good idea of this versatility; Caro Emerald, the Puppini Sisters, the Pasadena Roof Orchestra, the Humphrey Lyttelton Band, Kenny Ball and his Jazzmen, NYJO, Jacqui Dankworth, Jamie Cullum, Imelda May, Martha Reeves and the Vandellas, Jimmy James and the Vagabonds, Ali Campbell, Snowboy and the Latin Section, Roberto Plas and his Latin Jazz Ensemble, Bad Manners, Glenn Tilbrook, Gary Kemp and Pete Docherty, as well as numerous appearances on TV and radio. Ben also runs the Ben Cummings Quintet, the Ben Cummings -Craig Milverton Quartet and is currently involved in projects that include Tower Of Power tribute band Kick Ass Brass, street-beat band the Brass Volcanoes and modern jazz quartet Jack Pescod’s Barcode.
