about

This is the debut EP from my new chamber jazz band.
The idea came about years ago. I was listening a lot of classical music and thought about making a quartet with a cello exploring some composition techniques such as counterpoint or a cannon but adapted to my sound.
I also wanted to write longer pieces where the music flowed organically between improvised and written material as well as moving through a variety of different atmospheres.
This is a very exciting project to write for, the cello instead of a double bass expands the range of possibilities to a whole new level. It can play a usual bass part but can also have that beautiful bowed string quality that gives the music a kind of cinematic impression.
In attempting to feature some of these different functions I could to make music that emphasises a big variety of dynamics and moods, going from emotional and introspective moments to vigorous end explosive ones.
After a few failed attempts to find a suitable cellist (it’s hard to find cellists who can improvise over chords) I met Rupert, who is an extremely versatile and creative cellist and gave it that final push to make this band a reality.
