Kit Downes Quintet This gig celebrates the launch of their new album 'Light from Old Stars' and the event is being recorded live for BBC’s Jazz on 3.
Dark and detailed, colourful and chaotic, this Quintet is the new completely acoustic project from UK pianist and composer Kit Downes. It features the talents of Calum Gourlay (bass), James Maddren (drums), Lucy Railton (cello) and James Allsopp (bass clarinet).
Musically placed between an abandoned pirate ship and an unmanned pet-shop (lopsided blues and speedy corners), the band have played at Jazz Festivals in London, Trondheim, Tel Aviv and Bremen Jazzahead.

Tony Kofi is an award-winning instrumentalist who is dedicated to bringing the music and genius of legendary US jazz-man Thelonius Sphere Monk to new audiences. Kofi celebrates Monk’s work – demonstrating his unique improvisational spirit and formidable creativity.
