Big Visit
A genuinely impressive piece of work, intimate but ambitious and featuring intelligent original writing and inventive arrangements alongside some brilliant playing.
An avant garde jazz record that is actually highly accessible. The playing is steely eyed & dynamic but the band members also sound as if they’re having terrific fun. The Exu are a breath of fresh air
A composer of considerable intelligence who deploys his wide range of influences subtly and skilfully. The standard of playing from an all star band is exceptional throughout.
Her compositions are intelligent and evocative and her arrangements and orchestrations rich, wide ranging and colourful, allowing Davies to bring out the best from her hand picked cast of musicians.
“Catching Fire” is an appropriate title and captures the core trio and their illustrious collaborator at their best, the music a perfect amalgam of technical prowess and sheer visceral energy.
