The Sam Leak Trio perform contemporary jazz with a gospel-tinged, and folk-inspired, freedom and abandon. Conjuring up the joy and emotion typified by Paul Bley and Keith Jarrett’s 1960s trios, the ensemble maintains a sense of the tradition whilst performing music that is very much rooted in the UK Jazz movement of the moment. Drawing on Leak’s background in music psychology the music will be interspersed with fascinating insights about music and how we perceive it.
Line-up:
Sam Leak – Piano
Simon Read – Double Bass
Will Glaser – Drums
