SUMMARY:DOWNSTAIRS: THELONIOUS
DESCRIPTION:Hans Koller (Valve Trombone)\nMartin Speake (Alto Saxophone)\nCalum Gourlay (Bass)\nDave Dyson (Drums)\n\nTaking inspiration from the Steve Lacy/Roswell Rudd School Days band from the early 1960s\, Thelonious explore the entire Monk repertoire with both childlike curiosity as well as forensic attention to detail.Through collective learning of Monk’s unique catalogue of 70 tunes from the complete original recordings in a slow process lasting several months of regular playing\, probing\, rehearsing\, reflecting\, memorising\, meditating\, internalising and improvising\, Thelonious arrive at flexible interpretations of the material that are as dangerous as anything in contemporary music\, as well as comforting\, groovy and dreamy.\n\nMartin has worked extensively with Monk alumnus Paul Motian (Check out Martin’s ECM recording with him\, Change of Heart)\, and Hans has played and recorded with the original Monk repertoire guru Steve Lacy (London Ear). Calum and David are two of the most melodic and cutting-edge rhythm players active on the London jazz scene today\, perfects partners in the exploration of Monk’s music.\n\nThelonious are delighted to be playing the Vortex downstairs Cafe every second Sunday in the month after the London Jazz Orchestra\, from 6pm to 8pm

SUMMARY:LUME PRESENTS: SLOTH RACKET (Album Launch) + ELDA
DESCRIPTION:A double bill of touring bands this month\, as Cath Roberts launches her Sloth Racket album 'Triptych' and Andrew Woodhead brings his improvising trio ELDA from Birmingham.\n\nSLOTH RACKET\n\nSloth Racket is a quintet of UK improvisers led by baritone saxophonist Cath Roberts\, with Anton Hunter (Beats & Pieces Big Band\, Article XI) on guitar\, Sam Andreae (Trio Riot\, Silence Blossoms) on tenor saxophone\, Seth Bennett (Metamorphic\, En Bas Quartet) on bass and Johnny Hunter (Nat Birchall\, Johnny Hunter Quartet) on drums. The group play Cath's compositions\, in the form of frameworks for improvisation: combining composed fragments with graphic notation to explore the balance between freedom and structure. In November 2015 they gathered to record at Limefield Studio in Manchester with John Ellis (Cinematic Orchestra) engineering. The resulting session\, on a cold and rainy evening fuelled by coffee and pizza\, produced three substantial tracks that range across musical territories from fiery free jazz\, to minimal improv textures\, to deep grooves. The album 'Triptych' is released in May 2016 on the Luminous label.\n\nCath Roberts – baritone saxophone\n Sam Andreae – tenor saxophone\n Anton Hunter – guitar\n Seth Bennett – bass\n Johnny Hunter - drums\n\n+\n\nELDA\n\nAndrew Woodhead's latest project ELDA is a collaboration with Norwegian vocalist Kari Eskild Havenstrøm (Trondheim Voices\, Kristoffer Lo) and trumpeter Aaron Diaz (The Destroyers\, Sid Peacock)\, mixing acoustic sounds with live electronics and soundscapes. Andrew and Kari met on a musical exchange between Trondheim and Birmingham at the 2013 Cheltenham Jazz Festival\, and formed this trio with Aaron to continue their collaboration and explore their shared musical interests.\n\nAndrew Woodhead - keyboard/electronics\n Aaron Diaz - trumpet/electronics\n Kari Eskild Havenstrøm - vocals/FX
