20th March Elliot Galvin Trio Young pianist Elliot Galvin presents his new project The Influencing Machine: a sonic reaction to the human mind, technology and the post-truth age. Critic John Fordham says "He reminds me of the young Django Bates, and the impression Django made on me in the 1980s - great improv chops, strong character as a player and a composer, evident love of the jazz tradition without wanting to repeat the past, very English sense of humour. Hes the kind of artist you always want to stay tuned in to, because you know hes going to keep on coming up with surprises." www.elliotgalvin.com Elliot Galvin piano, Tom McCredie double bass, Corrie Dick drums. |
