Jonathan Crossley
It began at the age of five, lying flat on the floor, just outside Belfast, with an old set of (loud) Rotel headphones on, completely immersed in a smorgasbord of vinyl. Tangerine Dream & Vangelis, Bach to early Genesis …. this variety an early indicator of what was to come. After emigrating to South Africa at the age of six a family acoustic guitar led to classical guitar lessons, and the instrument of choice.
Yet while classical guitar was the instrument, a secret love of diversity never faltered. Music studies were paralleled with a continued love for electronic music, indie rock like the Pixies and Sonic Youth, stronger fare like Metallica and inevitably grunge were interwoven into a musical fabric, often to the disdain of music tutors.

Phil Hargreaves
Born:
phil hargreaves is a Liverpool-based instrumentalist and composer working in the field of improvised and experimental music. I began playing as a guitarist in a punk band in the West Midlands, where i grew up, before moving to Liverpool at the age of twenty and buying a tenor sax, both decisions that would radically shape the rest of my life. Initially i was involved in Liverpool's pop scene, recording John Peel sessions with Personal Column, but eventually i moved via streetband work into the jazz field. After stints playing fusion and dinner jazz, i finally found the area where i could fully combine my talents, interests and influences, in improvised music, an area first stimulated by work with Peshkar theatre, and my subsequent study of Indian music with Aziz Zeria in Manchester. I played with guitarist Phil Morton in the duo Bonehouse, and also helped establish the Frakture club in Liverpool, a club space for improvised and experimental music

With mesmeric minimalism, doomsday crescendos and certain movements built on math rock, the coalescence of keyboardist Emmett Elvin with guitarist Kavus ...
The Weave: The Weave
by Bruce Lindsay
From the perspective of an east of England jazz writer, it can seem like Manchester has the north east's jazz scene to itself, with Liverpool, its near neighbour, putting up little in the way of competition. It's not that Liverpool is un-musical--it is after all the home city of Gerry And The Pacemakers--but its impact on ...
