Entry Requirements: Under 18s to be accompanied by an appropriate adult
Featuring Simon Lasky, piano & keyboards, Luca Boscagin, guitars, Pete Billington, electric bass, Sophie Alloway, drums + special guest Philip Achille (harmonica). Original quasi-symphonic compositions, driving grooves, rich harmonies, expressive melodies and ecstatic improvisation are at the heart performances by The Simon Lasky Group. Formed in 2015 by classically trained British pianist and composer Simon Lasky, the band features an unconventional line-up of some of the most exciting international performers in the U.K and an ambitious and individual approach to composition and production. Following up their highly acclaimed debut release in 2015 (‘Story Inside’ on 33Jazz Records), the band released their second album, (‘About The Moment’, also on 33Jazz Records), in February 2018. The new album has already received substantial airplay on JazzFM, Soul&Jazz Radio, Solar Radio and Delite Radio. For ‘Jazz In Europe’ Jan Veldman says “…All in all “About The Moment” is a wonderful album that will appeal to a large jazz audience….. highly recommended."
