Chris Allard is one of the most accomplished of the younger generation of guitar players in the UK.

He released a new album last year, with Brandon Allen (saxes), Ross Stanley (keys), Oli Hayhurst (bass) and Nick Smalley (drums) – some of the best in the UK scene. Chris has performed with Tim Garland, Cleo Laine, Gwilym Simcock and a host of other great jazz artists. In 2012, Chris performed at the Hyde Park open air Proms with Madeline Bell and the BBC Big Band to over 40,000 people.
