Stu Brown’s Twisted Toons Quartet

Glasgow-based drummer and composer, Stu Brown, released his critically acclaimed debut album The Stu Brown Sextet, Twisted Toons – The Music of Raymond Scott in 2009, a tribute to the maverick bandleader, composer, inventor and electronic music pioneer. Twisted Toons Vol. 2 delves deeper into the world of the cartoon soundtracks, including the pioneering work of Carl Stalling, whose brilliantly detailed scores accompanied the antics of Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck and co., as well as the equally groundbreaking music of Scott Bradley, which underscored the slapstick violence of Tom and Jerry and the Tex Avery cartoons. Most of this music has never been recorded or performed live since the original cartoons were made. Stu Brown's Twisted Toons Quartet consists of: Stu Brown: drums, percussion, sound effects; Brian Molley: sax, flute, clarinet; Paul Harrison: piano, keyboards; Mario Caribé: double bass. Doors open at 14.30, for a 15.00 start.
