Continuing on the path of bringing you amazing live music of the highest standards presented in a warm and friendly atmosphere, we are super-excited to announce our upcoming album launch performance of the Jazz Quartet Lucid Dreamers!

Spearheaded by internationally renown vocalist Brigitte Beraha, this collective of cutting-edge players hailing from London brings you original compositions drawing from the jazz, folk, contemporary classical, free improv and electronic realms. With a repertoire ranging from poignant songs, atmospheric and open improvisations to exciting grooves and impactful stillness, this music transcends jazz, and melds with electronics in a way that is reminiscent not just of Basil Kirchin and Steve Lacy’s late electronic fusion work, but also of Talk Talk and the solo work of Robert Wyatt, in its oceanic ambience, its plaintiveness, and its periodic gusts of squally wildness.

Since their incarnation in 2019 Lucid Dreamers have extensively toured the UK and   Europe and have so far recorded two albums ‘Lucid Dreamers’ (2020) and ‘Blink’ (2022). We live in anticipation of their 3rd album due for release in autumn 2025 with a UK/European tour to celebrate! Join us here at Hafan for the stellar line-up of improvising vocalist, composer and lyricist Brigitte Beraha, Alcyona Mick on piano/synths, George Crowley on tenor sax/electronics and Tim Giles on drums/electronics!

ARE YOU AN ENTHUSIASTIC SINGER?
Brigitte also holds an afternoon workshop for singers of all levels at Hafan from 2pm to 4pm!

‘Lucid Dreamers is forceful, sustained aural theatre, and it demands nothing but your dreams in action in return. Utterly stunning.’ - Liverpool Sound and Vision
