LAURA JURD
Laura Jurd (Trumpet)
Ultan O'Brien (Violin / Viola)
Martin Green (Accordion)
Ruth Goller (Bass)
Corrie Dick (Drums)
A veritable supergroup featuring Martin Green on Accordion (Lau), Ultan O’Brien on Fiddle (Slow Moving Clouds), Ruth Goller on Bass (Vula Viel / Alabaster DePlume) and Corrie Dick on Drums (Glasshopper / Dinosaur).
One of the most distinctive voices in jazz and improvised music today, Laura Jurd's unique approach to the trumpet is celebrated in the work that she creates. Laura's love of folk traditions can often be heard in her music, alongside a background in classical composition, taking twists and turns that both invite surprise and evoke the inevitable.
In the past couple of years, Laura's love of traditional music has deepened having played alongside the likes of Irish fiddle player Ultan O'Brien and English accordionist Martin Green (one third of super-group Lau). This autumn sees Laura returning to the stage, presenting her astonishing new album, "Rites & Revelations" release due October 2025.
The music takes the listener on a journey of ritual and catharsis, propelled by the world-class rhythm section of Ruth Goller - bass and Corrie Dick - drums, alongside strikingly-brilliant folk musicians Ultan O'Brien and Martin Green.
"Jurd seems unconcerned by transient fashions or enrolment in any kind of scene, and pursues a private muse that draws on jazz, folk traditions from Europe and the Middle East... her work is always spiritedly accessible, and often suggests wordless songs” - John Fordham, The Guardian
