FREE ENTRY INSPIRATIONAL LIVE JAZZ INCOMING!!! Fri Mar 06 - Legendary British Sax Scientist STEVE WILLIAMSON continues his residency with an evening of pure unadulterated, boundary pushing LIVE Jazz music with THE STEVE WILLIAMSON TRIO (LIVE) FREE ENTRY at The CLF Art Lounge and Roof Garden https://www.residentadvisor.net/events/1397070
THE STEVE WILLIAMSON TRIO (LIVE) - Performing a minimum of 3 live sets from around 9pm.
Steve Williamson is one of the most distinctive saxophone voices in contemporary British jazz. Starting out with reggae outfit Misty in Roots, Steve emerged on the London jazz scene in the mid-1980s alongside Courtney Pine, Andy Sheppard and Tommy Smith, and as a founder member of The Jazz Warriors.
Releasing 3 albums, plus collaborations with, among others, Art Blakey, John Mayer, Archie Shepp, Donald Byrd, Chris McGregor, Maceo Parker, Guru and Jazzmatazz.
Funk, hip-hop and reggae are key influences, but it is the powerful presence of tenor giants Sonny Rollins and John Coltrane, combined with the explorations of M-Base founder Steve Coleman, that drive Steve's dynamic and imaginative approach to creating jazz. Steve has influenced a whole generation of artists, from bassist Anthony Tidd and pianist Robert Mitchell of Quite Sane, to celebrated alto saxophonist Soweto Kinch.
"The saxophonist's compositions and playing fuse chunks of jazz history with a depth and detail few can match" - FT
