Change of tack here for trad trumpeter Peter Horsfall (Kansas Smitty’s, Basin Street Brawlers) as he supplements his formidable mastery of his instrument with vocals on an EP of four songs.

The songs are silky smooth and are a throwback to the 1930s and 40s, a kind of a sweet innocence prevailing.

While the songs are Horsfall’s he has also collaborated on the last one, ‘Cupid’s Arrows and Bow,' with cabaret singer Barb Jungr.

The EP is so brief it’s hard to gain the full picture. But the title track is the song that sticks in the mind most, with is lulling soft questioning and subtle phrasing.

Horsfall is with a small group (David Archer on guitar, Joe Webb, piano, and Dave O'Brien, bass) who provide gentle backing throughout; and it will be interesting how much his taste for vocals develops. But for me trumpet is still king with this talented player, the vocals a bit of a seductive diversion, for now at least.
