SEED
Formed in early 2016, seed. (formerly known as SEED Ensemble) is a Hyundai Mercury Award 2019 nominated eleven-piece ensemble led by composer and alto-saxophonist Cassie Kinoshi. A dynamic group of musicians pushing the boundaries of contemporary jazz, seed. merges influences from various musical traditions to create a unique sonic experience.
Ancient Infinity Orchestra
Ancient Infinity Orchestra unfurled in the North of England. The joyous large ensemble has communal music-making at the heart of everything they do. And that includes the melodies that flow out of their new album It’s Always About Love which blossom with uplifting improvised contributions that circle around bandleader Ozzy Moysey’s beautiful songs; generous sonic gifts of healing and repair.
Laura Jurd (Quartet)
One of the most distinctive voices in jazz and improvised music, Mercury-nominated Laura Jurd's unique approach to the trumpet is celebrated in the work that she creates. A past BBC New Generation Artist, Laura's love of folk traditions can often be heard in her music, alongside her background in classical composition. The result is a melodic world full of compelling twists and turns, whilst retaining a grounded sense of familiarity.
