Inside the performance

Sound, stage & company

Documented collaborators

Corduroy is a London-born four-piece acid jazz outfit formed in 1991 by Ben Addison, Scott Addison, Simon Nelson-Smith, and Richard Searle. Fusing film-score textures with lounge vibes, they built a distinctive sound sometimes called the 'fabric four' on early Acid Jazz and Big Cat releases. Their approach blends tight rhythm sections with melodic hooks, creating a timeless groove that appeals to jazz purists and lounge listeners alike.
