Craig Milverton is often cited and has been critically acclaimed as Britain’s Oscar Peterson, and with his new drumless trio 'Three at Last' featuring Canadian Guitar Maestro Dominic Ashworth and the young Ray Brown influenced Bassist Luke Steele, he is in much demand as he pays tribute to the Great Oscar Peterson Trios of the 1950's. A real feast of swinging piano as one of the true Jazz legends is celebrated.

Craig is very much in demand as a solo pianist, with his virtuoso ability and comprehensive knowledge of the entire jazz spectrum. He is much sought after as a skilled accompanist to such star vocalists as Stacey Kent and Tina May. His trios are regularly required to back visiting American soloists at festivals and venues across the country including Scott Hamilton, Ken Peplowski and Warren Vache.
