In 2008, pianist and composer Dave Stapleton founded Edition Records with a singular goal: to release music from a close-knit circle of friends and fellow artists. Driven by a passion to bring fresh, innovative jazz to wider audiences, the label quickly became a hub for musical creativity. Over 16 years, Dave’s vision propelled Edition Records to the forefront of contemporary jazz, earning it critical acclaim, including Grammy recognition and Mercury Prize nominations, along with a dynamic global roster of world-class talent.
As a business working at the intersection of artists and industry, combined with a forward-thinking and adaptive mindset, they have a unique perspective to understand and recognise the challenges as well as the solutions currently facing so many Jazz artists.
With a strong belief fostering a collaborative environment they will be holding a Label Meet at the Vortex Jazz Club, to include a panel and Q & A session, Pop-up Shop and drinks prior to Jasper Høiby’s 3Elements trio perform as part of their album launch of ‘Like Water’.
