About
Acclaimed jazz guitarist Nick Costley-White invites internationally renowned jazz pianist Jason Rebello to join his trio for this special one off performance at the Vortex. Jason is one of the most important and exciting jazz pianists in the country, continuing an amazing career in which he’s performed with the likes of Wayne Shorter, Sting, Jeff Beck, Brandford Marsalis, to name just a few.
Nick’s own trio features Tom Farmer (Empirical, Anoushka Shankar) on bass and Mark Taylor on drums (George Coleman, Joe Henderson, Sarah Vaughan) on drums, two of the most in demand and heavy swinging musicians to be found in the UK. The band are hitting the road to promote their latest studio recording “Nice Work!”, and having performed at the Vortex Jazz Club just the night before you can expect them to be razor sharp! Their repertoire includes compositions by some of the greats of the modal jazz era alongside new arrangements of selected choices from the American Songbook. Having notched up hundreds of hours on the bandstand together gigging on the London jazz circuit they’ve honed their trio sound of swinging and dynamic improvising.
