Pianist Will Butterworth, shakuhachi and humbox player Mike McInerney, double bassist Jim Rintoul, and percussionist Steve Day come together as EX-NOVA for a unique afternoon performance in Totnes.
Expect an immersive mix of blended melodies, atmospheric textures, and imaginative ambient jazz — a live soundscape shaped in the moment.
Music from 12-2pm. Free entry as always, but donations to musicians welcome. Come early to grab a seat as we always fill up fast!
We are open from 10am, serving delicious home-made cakes, Crankhouse coffee and speciality teas. Wonderful cocktails and full bar from 12pm
“Butterworth speaks in lyrical and melodic fashion. There’s a wistful, almost elegiac
quality about the music….” Ian Mann The Jazzmann
“UK based Mike McInerney studied shakuhachi with Iwamoto… he sits patiently
singing amid vast soundscapes, until he unleashes complex spirals of flute trills,
looping contrails across the sky.” Clive Bell, The Wire, music magazine
Jim Rintoul “…is one of the finest bassists in the South West (of England).”
Andy Williamson, Ashburton Arts Centre
Steve Day “….in his jazz formed music, the wild leap from a theme to (the)
unexpected… is uncontrovertibly the right one…” Roger Dennis, Wylde Publications
