Celeste: Not Your Muse
by Chris May
The mega-concert staged in front of London's Buckingham Palace on June 4, 2022 to celebrate Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee was not an obvious save-the-date event for British jazz fans or non-monarchists. It was, however, brilliantly staged, and worth watching for that reason alone. And as it turned out, it contained three-and-a-half minutes of transcendent song ...
Alison Rayner Quintet: Short Stories
by Chris May
The Alison Rayner Quintet's third album is good medicine.

It's a cliché, of course, but a powerful one when it comes to thoughts (male, mainly) of Brazil and its music. UK-based Brazilian ...
Live From Old York: Laura Jurd, Annie Whitehead, Brooks Williams & Koshka
by Martin Longley
Laura Jurd's Dinosaur National Centre For Early Music November 11, 2016 Dinosaur are one of the UK's fastest rising new bands, although their recent re-naming hides a few years of history as the Laura Jurd Quartet.

Asaf Sirkis Trio: Shepherd's Stories
by John Kelman
It's getting to the point where it's almost impossible to pigeonhole an artist into any one category---and that can't be anything but a good thing.

Andy Sheppard: Thoughts and Trio Libero
by Sammy Stein
Andy Sheppard is pleased to be back; not back, as in making a return to music--he has never left--but back in Suffolk and, more particularly, back in Snape. Snape was where Trio Libero--consisting of French double bassist Michel Benita, drummer Sebastian Rochford and saxophonist Sheppard--was born. The trio released its self-titled debut earlier in 2012 on ...
