Cellar Bar Review by Bob Jones Worcester. Extracts from our , See them soon - you'll be glad you did or extremely sorry you didn't.

Chuck Harriet ..... played us some superbly authentic jazz from Brubeck,basie,Ellington and others. I've rarely seen such virtuosity. They each learned music from well before their teens, with enthusiasm and skill maintained in various projects.We are lucky they chose to live and play here in Worcester. See them soon - you'll be glad you did or extremely sorry you didn't .
