JATBL - Trish Clowes MY IRIS

A warm Blue lamp welcome this week to outstanding saxophonist/composer Trish Clowes and her band MY IRIS promoting their new album ‘A View with a Room’.

This is the fourth release by Trish and her acclaimed band, an intense and thrilling quartet that represents the front rank of the contemporary UK jazz scene. Lauded for her imaginative approach to improvisation and composition, Clowes provides her bandmates Ross Stanley (piano/Hammond organ), Chris Montague (guitar) and David Hamblett (drums) with a unique platform for individual expression, delivering driving grooves and lingering melodic lines, seamlessly morphing between earthy restlessness and futuristic dreamscapes.

“A high intensity, mercurial workout provides further evidence that Clowes is an improviser to be reckoned with” Downbeat

“Brilliant” Gilles Peterson

“…a beguiling Clowes solo that Lester Young or Ben Webster would have been proud of … Strong compositions brilliantly interpreted” All About Jazz
