Hugh Crozier is recognised as one of the best exponents of the Jelly Roll Morton style of piano playing and his music. He has been playing the piano for over 50 years and was attracted to jazz by hearing Jelly Roll Morton’s 1923 recording of Wolverine Blues. Hugh is an outstanding solo performer, specialising in early styles of jazz piano playing, as well as featuring in many popular traditional jazz bands.
