Oriole are a London-based band fusing lyrical world music with jazz spontaneity, who create an aural form of Magical Realism. [1] Oriole's members consist of many of the most well established figures in the new British Jazz scene [1] and are perhaps one of the few groups to feature two Mercury nominated artists: Ben Davis on cello and Seb Rochford on drums. [2] They have also released two albums on the F-IRE Collective label. The music of Oriole is composed by prolific guitarist Jonny Phillips (musician). [3]
