About:
Award-winning saxophonist and composer Ed Jones returns to the quartet format that first established his presence on the UK jazz scene over three decades ago. Formed in 2011, the ensemble initially drew inspiration from the music of Wayne Shorter, but has since evolved into a dynamic collective where original compositions by Jones and bassist Riaan Vosloo take centre stage, shaped through the creative interplay of pianist Ross Stanley and drummer Tim Giles.
Through extensive touring, the quartet has forged a distinctive collective sound where fiercely driven, intense ‘fire music’ converges with atmospheric, improvisational soundscapes. This is evident in both their strikingly original compositions and their innovative interpretations of the American Songbook.
