Rarely do we rely on promoter generated snippets to publicise our club gigs, but this one, from one of our most highly respected reviewers, could not be passed by. “If there’s one jazz ensemble on the British scene that wows you with sheer technical brilliance, it’s surely this one.” Ivan Hewett, Sunday Telegraph Review. John Law has found, in Russian Yuri Goloubev (astounding bassist known for his work with Gwilym Simcock), and Israeli percussionist Asaf Sirkis (Gilad Atzmon and Tim Garland groups + his own trio), two complimentarily talented virtuosi to create one of the most stunning rhythm sections currently working in Europe. This set incorporates brilliant interpretations of well known standards as well as pieces from John’s now classic ‘Art Of Sound’ album. Another significant publicity snippet to end whilst we’re at it...... “a sublime trio...a band heading for great things!” John Fordham Jazz UK/The Guardian
