The Squint Quintet was formed as a result of a Birmingham Jazz
commission for Sid Peacock in 2006. Crazy Walk, Shrink, CS Gas and
Sweet are studio recordings whilst Mistreated and Misfit were
recorded at live concert. The live tracks also see the quintet
augmented with string quartet, percussion, saxophone and outstanding
vocalist Debbie Clare.
Inspired by oddballs, freaks and things that lurk in the shadows
Squint is dedicated to societies' outsiders. Expect a healthy mix of
noise, clusters, quarter tones and grooves alongside moody harmonies
and melody. A celebration of being weird!
