The redoubtable Ridout family is an extraordinary UK jazz phenomenon. Father Mark is a much sought-after guitarist, who has played for Jimmy Smith, Natalie Cole and Eddie Parker. Sax and recorder player Tom recently graduated from the RAM, where his sister Alexandra has just started studying trumpet. They were two out of the five finalists in the BBC Young Musician Jazz Award 2016, which Alex won. They are joined by their younger brother Lester on drums.
