Theo Travis: Slow Life

Read "Slow Life" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

Between solo albums like Earth to Ether (33 Jazz, 2004) and Double Talk (33 Jazz, 2007), and working with progressive/fusion bands including Porcupine Tree, Gong, The Tangent, and Soft Machine Legacy, Theo Travis has become one of England's hardest working woodwind multi-instrumentalists. A fine player with a broad vernacular--blending the jazz tradition with a deeper understanding ...

Theo Travis: Double Talk

Read "Double Talk" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

The British jazz scene is filled with treasures often hidden from North American audiences. Woodwind multi- instrumentalist Theo Travis--who replaced Elton Dean in Soft Machine Legacy following the legendary saxophonist's unexpected passing in 2006--has his fingers in so many pies, however, that it's surprising he's not better known on the west side of the Atlantic. Along ...

Theo Travis: View from the Edge & Earth to Ether

Read "Theo Travis: View from the Edge & Earth to Ether" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

Theo Travis is yet another British jazz artist well-known in his own country but sadly under-appreciated elsewhere, especially in North America. With nearly ten records to his name, and involvement with Canterbury-related group Gong, progressive rockers Porcupine Tree, and singer Anja Garbarek, daughter of Norwegian legend Jan, it's no surprise that Travis' own records reflect a ...

Theo Travis: Earth To Ether

Read "Earth To Ether" reviewed by Chris May

by Chris May

Quirky, quietly trippy and deliciously uncategorisable, Earth To Ether is an oddity (we like odd) even by Theo Travis' standards. The British flautist/saxophonist's varied activities include leading a hardworking on-the-road straight-ahead band, co-leadership of ambient/electronica outfit Cipher and free improv trio Marshall Travis Wood, and ongoing composing, performing and producing collaborations with Daevid Allen's Gong and ...
