SUMMARY:Emma Johnson's Gravy Boat (1st Show)
DESCRIPTION:Unfortunately and due to unforeseen circumstances\, we had to cancel the 2 shows on Thursday 16th December. We apologise for the inconvenience\, all tickets will be refunded.\n \nLine-up:\nEmma Johnson - Saxophone\nFergus Vickers - Guitar\nRichard Jones - Piano\nAngus Milne - Double Bass\nSteve Hanley - Drums\nAbout\nEmma Johnson’s Gravy Boat is a contemporary\, cinematic jazz quintet led by Leeds based saxophonist and composer Emma Johnson.\n\nEmma's writing displays a contemporary sound rooted by infectious melodies and the group have been described as demonstrating a “strong and joyful bond\, immediately apparent in their sound”. Gravy Boat is a band that aspires to write and perform melodic\, accessible jazz that anyone can enjoy.\n\nGravy Boat have been played on BBC Radio 3 & BBC Introducing Leeds and play ‘a relaxed\, melodic and distinctive style of contemporary jazz’.\n\nRegarding Emma's playing\, a recent review on Bebop Spoken Here noted: ‘Johnson gets a great sound on tenor and has a technique to match. Not one of those in your face players but someone whose solos build gradually and logically\, with a natural lyricism reminiscent of Coltrane.’\n\nGravy Boat released a well received single 'Where Were You Hiding?' in 2020\, featuring Manchester based vocalist Nishla Smith\, as well as a series of live music videos entitled ‘Seafarer’s Suite’ and an EP in previous years. The band were selected for the Jazz North Northern Line scheme for the year 2019 and have performed at many prominent festivals including Marsden\, Manchester and Lancaster Jazz Festivals.\n\nEmma has been awarded a Peter Whittingham Development Award and thanks to the support of Help Musicians UK\, the band have released their debut album Worry Not to much acclaim this year.\n\n\n \nCOVID INFORMATION FOR AUDIENCE MEMBERS – PLEASE READ\nWelcome to the Vortex.
