Prepare to be transported by the unmistakable sound of one of Europe’s most celebrated jazz musicians, Andy Sheppard.


With his special blend of lyrical improvisation and boundary-pushing compositions, Sheppard has captivated audiences around the world - and now, he’s bringing his spellbinding show to The Haymarket this month.


Andy’s career spans over four decades, during which he has worked alongside jazz giants such as Carla Bley, Gil Evans, and George Russell. Known for his melodic playing and fearless innovation, he is as captivating in intimate solo settings as he is with full ensembles. His music crosses boundaries — fusing classical clarity with the fire and soul of contemporary jazz.
