Gary Crosby's Nu Troop is a post-bop jazz group formed in 1991 by musician Gary Crosby in London. Referred to by The Rough Guide to Jazz as "one of the most important UK bands",[1] the group won the Best Ensemble award at the Jazz à Vienne festival in 1997,[2] and their album of that year, Migrations, was described as "superb".[3]
