Since their formation in 1967 the Severn Jazzmen have been resident at the world famous Old Duke Jazz Pub in King Street, Bristol. Currently they appear there on alternate Mondays.

The band's style is very much traditional/dixieland including vocals from band leader Dave "Fats" Millman on the piano. This easy listening music will appeal to jazz connoisseurs and those who just want to hear some interesting happy swinging music.
 
The band has appeared at many jazz clubs and festivals throughout Europe; Acker Bilk, Alan Elsdon, George Chisholm, Martin Drew, Len Skeat, Jim Douglas, Brian Lemon, Kenny Baker and Roy Williams are among the many guests who have played with the band.

They are available for your special function: a jazz night, a Sunday Jazz Brunch, a Barbecue, wedding party etc
