  • Description

    Innovative saxophonist and composer Matt Anderson and his quartet release 'Rambling', which fuses a range of distinct musical influences, exploring the common ground between contemporary jazz and folk music. Subtle strains of blues and country can also be detected within the music, as well as echoes of Scandinavian jazz and Afro-Celtic soundscapes.

    Matt Anderson is the winner of the 2017 Dankworth Prize for Jazz Composition and a sought after saxophonist, already well established in the UK and European jazz scenes. His 2015 debut album 'Wild Flower' (also released on Jellymould), received widespread praise from critics and audiences alike, cementing Anderson's reputation as an ingenious player performing exciting and original compositions.

    It features Pete Lee on piano, Will Harris on double-bass and Jay Davis on drums, as well as some tracks with special guests Nick Malcolm on trumpet, Owen Dawson on trombone and Aubin Vanns on guitar.

    'Rambling' is Anderson's best work to date and signifies an evolution and development of a signature sound. This new music is a genuine representation of positive progression, both in terms of maturity of composition and effervescent performance.
