An superb collaboration between the US and UK improvised music scenes, this quartet brings together two stalwart voices of the New York creative music community alongside a pair of the most in-demand collaborators in the North of England as well as a support set from Leeds-based improvising pianist, composer and writer Laura Cole . The headline ensemble features two of the most acclaimed musicians in NYC and beyond: the long-time partnership of luminary composer and bandleader Ingrid Laubrock (saxophone) and master improviser Tom Rainey (drums) alongside a pair of the most in-demand collaborators in the North of England. Frequent rhythm-section colleagues with a near telepathic musical empathy, Johnny Hunter (drums) and John Pope (double bass) bring their energetic chemistry and versatile musicianship to a variety of projects across the spectrum of modern creative music, from straight-ahead swing and hard-bop to searing fire music to the most abstract of free improvisation.
This potent configuration of creative artists promises to be a thrilling example of the powers of collective music-making, international collaboration and the wide-open possibilities of a double drum kit line-up.
