| Friday, 19 December 2008 10:23 | |||||||
Drummer John Randall and his group, the John Randall Quintet, have been announced as recipients of this year’s Peter Whittingham Jazz Award. Worth £4,000 to the winners, who will use the money to develop their website, the prize was awarded by a judging panel which included saxophonist Dave O’Higgins, drummer Clark Tracey, Steve Rubie of the 606 Club and Chris Whittingham, son of Peter Whittingham who the award is named after. A former student of the Birmingham Conservatoire, Randall issued the quintet’s debut album Insomnia featuring Phil Robson earlier in the year and also was announced as a Yamaha-Classic FM Jazz Scholar. A further MBF Development Award of £3,000 was made to guitarist Mark McKnight.
