New Releases in 2022!

I have a new, download only release out today. It is a continuation of my Duos for Distancing series, this time recorded indoors (which was a novelty at the time of recording!) with tenor sax powerhouse, Simon Prince. I’m aware that it might not really be relevent any more but I think the music is still worth sharing! Think serial Ayler…

I also have some physical releases coming up this year:
– A new Johnny Hunter Quartet album, coming out on Efpi Records, will also include artwork from Angela Guyton and poetry from Laura Cole, both working in response to the music.
Spinningwork, a brand new quartet forming during the lockdown with Tom Ward, Cath Roberts and Olie Brice, has been recorded at will be released on New Jazz And Improvised Music Recordings.
– Finally, a trio record with Mark Hanslip and Olie Brice from October 2019 will be released on Discus Music.

In terms of live performances, next month I will be taking my group, Pale Blue Dot, up to Newcastle’s Sound of Science festival. We performed at last year’s London Jazz Festival, with Graham South stepping in for Mark Hanslip, which you can watch the concert here:
