Debroy Somers is a musician whose high reputation in the world of jazz was not won overnight. His father was bandmaster of a Gloucestershire regiment, and while he was stationed in Dublin he sent his son to the Royal Irish Academy of Music to study under Michael Esposito.
Debroy worked as a bandmaster until a year or two before the last war, when he formed a band specially for recording. A supper at the Savoy with Nat Ayer and the late Bert Ralton led to his taking over the music of the hotel and afterwards the first BBC broadcasts of the famous Savoy Orpheans.
