Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Jazz @ The Salisbury 16th dec presents The Phil Stevenson Trio and Southbound
Jazz @ The Salisbury rounds off 2012 with another fantastic double bill this Sunday...................
The Phil Stevenson Trio
An original and melodic brand of funk, laced with the warmth of blues and improvisation. With the emphasis on dance grooves, they are influenced by artists such as The Meters, Eddie Harris and Jimi Hendrix.
The aim of this band is to plot a wide course through the 60's funk sound, from the looseness of New Orleans to the locked-up grooves of James Brown, drawing on raw blues and w
ith occasional nods to joyful west african guitar styles.
Featuring two fantastic musicians, Pat Levett on drums and Bill Mudge on Hammond organ.
Southbound
Jack Davies (Trumpet), Rob Cope (Sax), Tom Taylor (Piano), Jon Ormston (Drums).
Sharing a love of the both the classical and jazz traditions, this
bassless quartet are continually surprising - at one moment
unboundedly explorative, and the next powerfully grounded.
With a compositional assurance and pianissimo control that makes clear their classical influence, Southbound draw on the angular melodies of Tim Berne, and are driven by the constant creativity that marks out US composer / trumpeter Dave Douglas.
Recent gigs have included capacity shows at jazz festivals in
Manchester, London and Kongsberg (Norway) as well as a broadcast for
BBC Radio 3's Jazz Line Up from the Southport Jazz Festival.
"Spacious musically with some daring improvisational work"
- JAZZWISE MAGAZINE
"This bassless quartet had a sound of such clarity and self assurance
that it was hard not to be impressed."
- CHRIS ACKERLEY, THE SOUND OF NOW
"Relentless energy coupled with a rigorous sense of the tradition and
magnificent mind for melody."
- SANDBAR JAZZ
"Immaculate contemporary jazz."
