Big Chief is a British jazz band, that also incorporates blues influences. The band is described by the Observer as "an institution as much as a band, bundling jazz, blues and soul in one bag and shaking them vigorously". Its members included late British saxophonist Dick Heckstall-Smith, and Tony Reeves.
