The second collaboration of Jazz Alloy is a brave cross genre mix were the legendary saxophonist Steve Williamson (from Jazz Warriors and a successful solo career including a first album produced by Wayne Shorter) will team up with the Swedish folk star Emilia Amper on key harp and vocals, and the amazing drummer Marque Gilmore (Joe Zawinul, Omar Sosa and others) aka “King of the Jungle Drums”.
This format of musical labs is a unique experience for both audience and musicians and has been created from the most interesting and forward thinking Swedish and UK music innovators. All concerts are hosted by the UK-based and award winning Swedish vocalist Emilia Mårtensson.
The series of totally 6 concerts is organised by Musikcentrum Öst/Sweden, the Vortex Jazz Club and Emilia Mårtensson in collaboration with The Embassy of Sweden, EFG London Jazz Festival and Svensk Jazz. Jazz Alloy is supported by Musikverket.
Emilia is a world star of the key harp. The chance to hear this collaboration will be explosive but lyrical, to be sure.
