Estraven: Ignored Advice
by Chris May
South London band Estraven's debut album is a pleasure and a breath of fresh air: a novel chunk of acoustic jazz which avoids what has become, in 2022, the South London scene's default focus on grooves and dancefloors. Ignored Advice ploughs its own furrow. The young piano-less quartet is led by bassist and ...

Matt Gordy: Be With Me
by Richard J Salvucci
