“Martin Speake is one of the most interesting and rewarding alto saxophonists now playing jazz on any continent” – Jazz Times.

This unusual trio of alto saxophone, guitar and drums brings together all of Martin’s musical influences alongside his favourite musical partners. The three musicians are committed to improvising in the moment. With meditative ballads, trance like grooves, free improvisation, minimalism, jazz standard songs, Arabic influenced music, heavy metal guitar, unaccompanied solos from each player and more are featured in this unique and intimate trio.

Alongside Martin, is one of the UK’s foremost guitarists, Mike Outram, who is sought after as an improviser and for his ability to contribute a unique voice to any musical ensemble. He has toured internationally, appeared on over a hundred CDs for Universal, Sony, Candid, Blue Note records and others, and was awarded Granada Jazz Festival’s 'Best Group in Europe' award.

Completing the trio is Young Scottish Jazz Musician of the Year in 2013, much in demand drummer, Corrie Dick.

“There is no musician with such complete control of the sounds coming out of a guitar. Mike Outram plays the sweetest wailing rock guitar in Britain. It’s a sound of great beauty." Seb Scotney, London Jazz
