SE Collective at the Spice of Life, SOHO

THE SE COLLECTIVE TAKE OVER THE SPICE OF LIFE, SOHO!

If you thought that 3 nights of madness over the London Jazz Festival (13,14,15 NOV) wasn't enough...

the SE Collective present two home grown bands for your Soho viewing pleasure..

ACROBAT

Pat Davey - Drums
Will Bartlett - Organ
Kristian Borring - Guitar

 

 

' Acrobat is a London-based Jazz organ trio, founded in 2008 by its three members. The warmth and presence of the classic organ/guitar groups are heard alongside new textures and stylish improvising. Compelling grooves and melodic clarity invite the listener inside one of the most exciting sounds in Jazz today.
Collective effort is the key in Acrobat. All members contribute compositions, before spending time arranging and work-shopping the material together to create a sound that is original to Acrobat. This subtle, supportive interaction allows the music to grow from sparse colours and intimate dialgoues to rugged sounds with electrifying solos: an evolving and involving experience.'

PSEUDONYM

Tom Challenger - Tenor Saxophone
Alam Nathoo - Tenor Saxophone
Tom Farmer - Double Bass
Peter Ibbetson - Drums

 

 

'Drummer Peter Ibbetson, brings together some of the finest musicians and improvisers currently working in Europe. The compositions penned by Ibbetson are influenced by the angular obscurity of bands such as BloodCount, Science Friction and AlasNoAxis, and the textures in bands such as Tortoise, Radiohead and Mogwai.'

'...drummer for the future...' Jazzwise
