SUMMARY:Danny Piers Trio w/ special guest Steve Williamson
DESCRIPTION:Doors 7:45 PM\, Music 8:30 PM – 2 set(s) of music\n  \nLine-up:\nDanny Piers – Piano \nSteve Williamson – Soprano saxophone \nTom Sheen – Double Bass \nSacha Harlan – Drums \n  \nAbout\n“Danny is a remarkable pianist and musical creative who plays with an attractive energetic spirit and depth. He possesses a fertile mind tirelessly searching for the musical gold and a soul that celebrates the heart and spirit of things. This combination is abundant in Danny’s presence and will make his very bright future sparkle.’’ – Julian Joseph OBE \nDanny Piers is a British-Spanish jazz pianist and composer based in London. He taught himself jazz piano in his late teenage years after falling in love with the music of Erroll Garner and Oscar Peterson. After having established firm roots in the swing tradition whilst studying with renowned pianist John Turville\, he began to explore more contemporary sounds\, drawing inspiration from musicians such as Shai Maestro\, Gonzalo Rubalcaba and John Coltrane. \nRecently graduating from Trinity Laban Conservatoire with first-class honours\, Danny has been mentored by Julian Joseph OBE\, Steve Williamson\, Shai Maestro\, Bruno Heinen and Matthew Bourne \nDanny has been praised for his expressive and high-energy performances\, with spontaneous sensitive interplay being a defining feature of his trio. Danny’s receptive ears\, pianistic prowess and eclectic influences allow him and his trio to explore uncharted territories and let the music guide them beyond. \nDanny was one of the few selected to compete in the 15th Unisa International Solo Jazz Piano Competition in Pretoria\, South Africa in January 2024\, being the only pianist to represent the UK. Danny is regularly performing as the pianist in the acclaimed Byron Wallen Quintet\, and has worked with jazz legends such as Charles Tolliver\, Tony Kofi and Gareth Lockrane. He has played at venues such as The Barbican\, The Southbank Centre\, Pizza Express\, The Vortex and The 606 among others. \nTonight Danny’s trio is joined by special guest and jazz titan Steve Williamson\, a trailblazer who has been described as “one of the most distinctive saxophone voices in contemporary British jazz”. \n

SUMMARY:Stian Larsen / Colin Webster / Ruth Goller / Andrew Lisle
DESCRIPTION:Doors 6:45 PM\, Music 7:30 PM – 1 set(s) of music\n  \nLine-up:\nStian Larsen – Guitar \nColin Webster – Alto saxophone \nRuth Goller – Bass Guitar \nAndrew Lisle – Drums \n  \nAbout\nNorwegian guitarist Stian Larsen has for a number of years been recognized as an energetic and highly inventive improviser in the avant-garde music scene in Norway. The collaboration with the British reed player Colin Webster and percussionist Andrew Lisle is an exciting exploration of the electric guitar and interplay across musical borders. \nAfter releasing two albums as a trio they invited bassist Ruth Goller into the studio to record their third album «Temple of Muses». \nWebster and Lisle’s energetic free jazz meets Larsen and Goller’s post-rock\, noise guitars in an exciting interaction that is dynamic\, playful and hard-hitting. The Album was released on New York label Relative Pitch on January 24th. \n  \nPraise for «Temple of Muses»: \n«Excellent stuff! This\, and I mean the whole record\, has to be played with the volume on 11» – Mark Daelmans-Sikkel\, Vital Weekly \n«A show of free\, genre bending\, brilliantly communicated fun» – Spontaneous Music Tribune \n«On the one hand\, the often explosive free jazz of Webster and Lisle; on the other\, the post-rock of Larsen and Goller\, made of abrasive guitars\, in an intense interaction that leaves no stone unturned» – António Branco\, jazz.pt \n«Raw and immediate\, fast and brutal sonic collisions» – Eyal Hareuveni\, saltpeanuts.eu \n«Some ancient muses may have been fickle\, but the ones summoned by this quartet help elevate a session that is as rewarding as it is raucous» – Ken Waxman\, Squid’s Ear \n«This disc has a freeish\, electric\, sorta punk/jazz sound with lots for fractured eruptions (…) Most impressive!» – Bruce Lee Gallanter\, DMG \n«The bass drum section is on fire\, Andrew LISLE pulses finely\, LARSEN can play his arpeggios\, Ruth GOLLER’s bass is well rounded\, saxophonist Colin WEBSTER is not shy either…» – Valery John Klebar\, stnt.org \n\n

SUMMARY:Tomeka Reid Quartet (2nd show)
DESCRIPTION:Doors 9:30 PM\, Music 10:00 PM – 1 set of music\n  \nLine-up:\nTomeka Reid – Cello \nMary Halvorson – Guitar \nJason Roebke – Bass \nTomas Fujiwara – Drums \n  \nAbout\nCellist\, composer and MacArthur Fellow Tomeka Reid explores new improvisational math with 3+3\, the third release by her all-star quartet and her most adventurous project as a leader yet. Featuring Jason Roebke on bass\, Tomas Fujiwara on drums\, and fellow MacArthur Fellow Mary Halvorson on guitar. \nNo artist over the past decade has done more to bring the cello from the margins to the center of the contemporary jazz scene than Tomeka Reid. Nurtured by the creative hothouse of Chicago’s AACM\, she’s recorded prolifically since making her debut on flutist Nicole Mitchell’s 2002 Black Earth Ensemble album Afrika Rising. But with 3+3\, Reid takes a major step as a composer with a bold and protean approach to designing settings for group improvisation. \nBuilding on the deeply intuitive language explored by the quartet on her acclaimed Cuneiform debut\, 2019’s Old New\, Reid set out to explore extended themes. Over the course of three pieces that flow together much like a set the group plays in concert\, the album captures the state-of-the-art ensemble moving with unhurried grace\, constantly calibrating the evolving conversation. \n“I see the whole album as a suite\,” says Reid\, who moved back to Chicago in 2020 after about four years in New York. “Previously I’d written shorter pieces and felt like I had to write ‘jazz pieces’\, and for this album I wanted to write longer forms. I do a lot of free improvisation and wanted to reflect that more on my records. There are tunes on this too\, but it’s more open.” \nPart of what’s new for Reid is her expanded sonic palette\, which can make it difficult to tell where her bow work and Halvorson’s electronics diverge. “As a string player\, I used to be anti-electronics\,” she says. “I love the acoustic cello sound. But playing with Mary\, I really love how it’s part of her voice\, not something extra. So\, previously\, I strived to make electronic sounds acoustically using different preparations as that was something I was earnestly exploring and now I feel ok incorporating electronics.” \n“Jason\, Tomas and Mary are incredible artists and I’m honored to have them as bandmates\,” she says. “They’re always open to what I bring to them\, and I’m always thinking about how can I best feature them. How can I create settings they can do something magical over? On this album I wanted it to sound like a gig or a show\, instead of something for a recording\, and they ran with it.” \nPhoto credit: Jasmine Kwang\n \n3+3 de Tomeka Reid Quartet

SUMMARY:Henry Lowther' Still Waters
DESCRIPTION:Doors 7:45 PM\, Music 8:30 PM – 2 set(s) of music\n  \nLine-up:\nHenry Lowther – Trumpet \nPete Hurt – Tenor Saxophone \nBarry Green – Piano \nDave Green – Double Bass \nPaul Clarvis – Drums \n  \nAbout\nStill Waters was born out a long association and friendship going back 40 years between myself and Britain’s premiere bassist Dave Green. We both felt that the time had arrived to play music of our choice together with some of the finest jazz musicians working in Britain today. As a result Still Waters is now one of the most accomplished and creative bands around. \nAlthough a classic quintet of two front line and rhythm\, Still Waters plays radical and original music\, ranging from gentle\, quietly pastoral and melodic music\, reflecting the band’s name\, through to dynamic\, free improvisation. \nI am immensely proud of the band. The main thing to say about it is that it is a BAND and not just a collection of individual musicians; in other words the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. The level of creativity\, adventure and interplay on gigs never ceases to astonish me; no two gigs are ever the same and this is truer of Still Waters than of any other band I’ve ever played in.\nDave Green\, is without doubt the foundation of Still Waters. He has a way of finding the right thing to do at exactly the right time. Whatever else goes on around him he always keeps it right there\, allowing everybody else maximum freedom. \nPaul Clarvis is the most idiosyncratic\, original and creative drummer in British jazz who\, together with pianist Barry Green’s ability to move from straight ahead playing to wayward free improvisation\, makes the rhythm section an absolute joy. I love its ability to go anywhere it chooses to go. \nMy partner on the front line\, Pete Hurt\, is not only a wonderful and inventive saxophone player but also an all round accomplished master musician and one of Britain’s very greatest composers of music for big band \n\n
