  • Description

    Manchester based quartet Mercury re-issue their 2013 debut album 'Mercury' with ASC Records. They have been described by the Manchester Jazz Festival as "A whirling sound that sits somewhere in the space between contemporary jazz and popular music".

    The musical world Mercury inhabits lies in the murky edges between genres. Always attempting to find new interpretations of the jazz quartet format, Mercury makes improvised jazz music go reaching into the worlds of grunge, dub step, folk and ambient house. Seeking new and subversive textures from the classical avant-garde and blending them with the jazz voices of the greats of ECM and the feels and gestures of electronic music.



    'Mercury always engage. Energetic grooves mixed with warmth and lyricism - a perfect combination.' - Gwilym Simcock



    Personnel: Tom Thorp (saxophones), Dan Brew (guitar), Gavin Barras (bass), Jim Molyneux (drums)
