“The flugelhorn is probably not front of mind when it comes to rock ensembles. I guess it’s my job to change that,” Smith is quoted in an Asian based music blog. The mellow sound of the conical flugel first made famous by Miles Davis, adds a sweet tone to the dark Cameron Smith lines of “The Horn Dingoes”.
Smith’s magic comes from a career as one of the hardest-working musicians on the Australian contemporary jazz and Latin scene. A giant in terms of his musical prowess and physical presence, Smith fulfils the role traditionally taken by the tenor or alto saxophone in PlanB’s horn centric arrangements.
Don’t miss this unique combination when PlanB performs at a venue near you.
