SUMMARY:The Downstairs Living Room:  Edlund/Rietkerk/Nicholls
DESCRIPTION:Doors 10:30 PM\, Music 11:00 PM - 1 set(s) of music\n \nAbout\n“Vortex Lates” is a new series of events taking place in our downstairs bar from 10:30-12am every Friday or Saturday. A new late-night jazz hang for Dalston where you can grab a drink and listen to some of the best improvised musicians from around the city. For only £6\, check out exciting music from a revolving line-up of innovative performers digging into standards and new music alongside DJs spinning vinyl until the early hours. A relaxed atmosphere and an opportunity to be part of the extended Vortex community.\n\n\nThe Downstairs Living Room\n\n\nThree of London’s most exciting improvisers get together for the first time to delve into forgotten folk tunes and songs that will never be sung again.\n\n\n\n\nRebecka Edlund\nRebecka Edlund is a Swedish singer\, lyricist and composer with a soft spot for the ocean\, anecdotes and rusty orange. Her music is a concoction of jazz and Scandinavian folk music\, herding calls\, bird whistles and other peculiar sounds\, exploring freely improvised\nstorytelling and contemporary songwriting. Rebecka’s debut album ’Något om en björk’ (2022) was nominated by Lira Music Magazine as the best folk jazz album of the year and her new project ’Virgin Forest’ features the extraordinary musical minds of Laura Jurd and Elliot Galvin.\n\nKasper Rietkerk\nMulti-award winning saxophonist Kasper Rietkerk’s music is a weaving of strong melodies and a deep sense of space. Intricate delicacy meets expressive power in his improvisations. His second album The Happy Worrier (June 2025)\, has received glowing reviews and features some of the UK’s greatest musicians: John Parricelli\, Tom Herbert\, Jonah Evans and Rebecka Edlund.\n\nSam Nicholls\nHailing from the Lake District\, Sam carved his drumming from an early age under the tutelage of Dave Hassell and the fresh mountain air. Sam has just graduated from the Jazz Course at Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance and is performing around Europe with the likes of Hans Koller and Steve Berry.
