The FB Pocket Orchestra was formed in 2012 by Paul Stevenson, Jenny Russell and Ollie Corbin after a cancelled recording project created free studio time. Their self-imposed brief was simply to explore the popular music repertoire of the early 20th century. They feel that much of the detail and inherent beauty of this repertoire lies in the subtle interaction of more traditional instruments. They have broadened their scope to include banjo, cornet, harmonica, accordion, tuba, clarinet and violin.
