Inspired by a life-long love of the cowboy film, inimitable multi-instrumentalist Richard Ormrod celebrates the Western soundtracks of Bernstein, Morricone, Tiomkin et al and takes a sideways look at the Wild West with arrangements of some of the most well known Western theme tunes.

From High Noon to The Big Country, How the West Was Won to Champion the Wonder Horse, HOTB takes these themes from the 50’s and 60’s down a hot dusty road and brushes them off with a healthy mix of post-bop jazz, grinding blues grooves and free improvisation.

With Paul Hession – Drums, Jonny Flockton – Guitar and Rus Pearson – Double Bass
