Dave Green - No musician can have covered more of the British jazz scene than bassist Dave Green. From Humphrey Lyttelton to Stan Tracey, not to mention some of the grandest visitors to Ronnie Scott’s, he has understood and underpinned them all.

Green's first public performances were with his childhood friend Charlie Watts in the late 1950s. While performing with Humphrey Lyttelton from 1963 to 1983, Green also played with the Don Rendell–Ian Carr band in the early 1960s, and went on to play with Stan Tracey. In the early 1980s, Green led his own group, Fingers, featuring Lol Coxhill, Bruce Turner and Michael Garrick Green regularly backed visiting American stars at Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club, including Coleman Hawkins, Ben Webster, Roland Kirk and Sonny Rollins. Green has also performed and recorded with Dave Newton, Didier Lockwood and Spike Robinson. In 1991, Green was a founding member of Charlie Watts's quintet, together with Gerard Presencer, Peter King and Brian Lemon.

Since 1998, Green has led a trio featuring Iain Dixon and Gene Calderazzo, and since 2009, he has been a member of The ABC&D of Boogie Woogie, with Ben Waters, Axel Zwingenberger and Charlie Watts, performing at the Lincoln Center with Bob Seeley and Lila Ammons.
