2015 marked the 25th anniversary of Audio-B, which has issued in excess of 30 recordings featuring some of the finest British and international jazz and classical musicians - from revered names such as Tony Coe, Chick Corea, Northern Sinfonia, John Dankworth and Cleo Laine to up-and-coming players such as Alcyona Mick, Kate Williams, Christian Garrick, Carl Herring and Magdalena Filipczak.
Proprietor and double bassist Malcolm Creese started the label (originally as 'ABCDs') in 1990. He produces the recordings and he appears as a player on several of them. Creese's groundbreaking trio Acoustic Triangle has released four albums on the label, and his two long-term collaborators, Tim Garland and Gwilym Simcock, feature on several others, including Garland's extraordinary orchestral album 'Celebrating Bach' (ABCD 5025) and his innovative collaboration with Chick Corea - 'The Mystery' (ABCD 5020).
The first CD released on the label was Jazz from the Café by the Jonathan Taberner Trio. New Zealand-born pianist Jonathan built this website and is responsible for maintaining it. His skill was recognised when the label was presented with the award for 'Best Web Site' at the Parliamentary Jazz Awards in 2006.
