Joss has been a professional pianist since the tender age of fifteen. Mainly self-taught and with a natural love of sound from an early age, Joss’ whole life has been passionately devoted to music. He is known for his sensitive, imaginative playing - and for being open to a diverse range of stylistic influences.
A graduate from Leeds College of Music, his career has seen him playing in countless jazz clubs and festivals around the country. He has worked with established names; Andy Williams, Spike Wells, Bobby Wellins; as well as ‘young lions’ of British jazz such as Seb Rochford and Pete Wareham.
He toured the UK extensively with the big band for the Rat Pack tribute ‘Live From Las Vegas’, the hit stage show remembering the classic masterpieces of Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Junior.
Joss also lived and played in Granada (Southern Spain) for a year where he attracted significant attention from the Spanish media and won the coveted ‘Secadero’ prize for jazz piano.
Now based in Brighton, Joss spends his time gigging, teaching, composing and making professional arrangements.

I loves you porgy

Ain't misbehavin
Cheek to cheek
I've got you under my skin
My funny valentine
How insensitive
Girl from ipanema
Is you is or is you ain't my baby

Georgia on my mind
Ain't necessarily so
I got rhythm

You make me feel so young
Every time we say goodbye

Fly me to the moon
That old devil called love
My baby just cares for me
