SUMMARY:Sam Leak's "Humanism" feat. Tom Farmer & Jason Brown
DESCRIPTION:Doors 7:45 PM\, Music 8:30 PM - 2 set(s) of music\n \nLine-up:\nSam Leak - Piano\n\nTom Farmer - Double Bass\n\nJason Brown - Drums\n\n \nAbout\nSam Leak is an award-winning\, London-based jazz pianist described by JazzFM’s Helen Mayhew as "one of the brightest stars in the jazz piano galaxy\, a heavenly improviser\, and a brilliant prospect for the future." His eponymous 2011 debut album was listed in MOJO Magazine as one of the “Top Ten International Releases of the Year.” The 2013 follow-up\, "Places\," was described by The Guardian’s John Fordham as "surefooted creativity… way beyond respectful expertise\," and by BBC Music Magazine’s Daniel Spicer as "assured and sophisticated acoustic jazz with deep roots in the tradition\, that knows exactly what it’s trying to do – and succeeds." Jamie Cullum introduced Leak’s cohort as "heavyweights of the British jazz scene" and described himself as a "fan" of the band in his regular BBC broadcast.\n\nIn 2018\, Leak released "Adrift\," a duet with New York’s Dan Tepfer\, a long-time collaborator of legendary veteran saxophonist Lee Konitz. Of this album\, The Wire’s Marcus O’Dair has said: "Sam Leak and Dan Tepfer are two of the best pianists of their generation\, and their convergence on this recording is astonishing." The New York City Jazz Record described it as "magical" and "constantly evolving and engaging."\n\nTonight\, he premieres new music—his first new compositions since 2020—with a new band featuring bassist Tom Farmer (Empirical) and NYC-based drummer Jason Brown (Cedar Walton).\n\n \n\n
