SOLD OUT - Led Bib & Phronesis: BRIT JAZZFEST DOUBLE BILL Tuesday 3rd August

A night featuring two cutting edge bands - torchbearers for the revitalized young British jazz scene. Mark Holub’s Led Bib were described as “The future of jazz” by The Times, and nominated for the 2009 Mercury Music Prize. Relentlessly dodging definition, Led Bib are both a maverick jazz band and an unlikely rock quintet, who have together torn apart the jazz world with their avant-jazz-euphoric-rock explosions of improvisation.

The heavily-tipped Phronesis have been drawing favourable comparisons to E.S.T. Tonight the trio will be debuting material from their latest cd ‘Alive’. Their music is anchored on powerful, melodic and often hypnotic bass grooves created by Copenhagen-born bassist Jasper Høiby, British pianist Ivo Neame and drummer Anton Eger
