About Eloise Short Quartet
Eloise Short Quartet Formed in Spring 2006 and have taken the Sheffield music scene by storm. Playing everything from classic jazz numbers to modern hits in a laid back style. The band comprises of Andy Booth on keyboards, Matt Whiteley on drums, Rob Straw on trumpet and the effervescent Eloise Short on vocals. ESQ recorded their 'September Sessions' CD in Autumn 2006 which sold over 800 copies and saw their BBC Radio 2 debut with the Desmond Carrington Show. It also took them to Keswick Jazz Festival 2008 where they received rave reviews and are return 2009. Interestingly, none of the band members came from a jazz background. Andy Booth hails from the world of Classical music, Matt Whiteley and Rob Straw are very well respected on the Brass band circuit, and Eloise came out of the Northern Club scene. This unexpected mix is undoubtedly responsible for their sound which has been described as "both quirky and melancholy, but mainly fun - a breath of fresh air".
