We were very sad to learn of the death of Jim Petrie, remarkable trumpeter and vocalist, and stalwart of the Edinburgh Jazz & Blues Festival.

Graham Blamire has written an appreciation of one of our best loved jazz musicians: https://edinburghjazzfestival.com/about-the-festival/news/jim-petrie-an-appreciation.html
