I’ve just got back from the London Jazz Festival, playing at a Jazz On 3 event which featured “short sets from established acts as well as one-off collaborations. This year’s line-up includes UK electronic improviser Leafcutter John, expect anything from samples distorted by a Wii to creaky floorboards; Dutch experimental acoustic bass guitarist Luc Ex, along with Ab Baars and Ingrid Laubrock on reeds and saxes; and the Anton Hunter Trio. A guitarist from Manchester, Anton’s spiky melodies and heavy riffs reveal his roots in experimental post-rock.”
It was a really great gig. Loads of fantastic musicians creating loads of incredible music. I was so chuffed to have been a part of it.
