We are delighted to be joined by two titans of British Jazz for our next Jazz at kollectiv session, taking place in the midst of Music and May.
Steve Lodder is a pianist, synth player, composer, producer, teacher and author. Renowned for his expressive style as a pianist, composer and arranger, Steve has long been an important figure of the British jazz scene. With a creative approach to genre and innovation, his work has taken him from solo albums to incredible collaborations such as ARQ (the Alison Rayner Quintet), and earned him a respected place on the modern jazz landscape. Steve has also collaborated with Paul McCartney, John Harle, Elvis Costello and Brazilian singer Mônica Vasconcelos as well as with our own Carol Grimes. His latest album is '2 Sorts of 3' features Dudley Phillips,Freddie Jensen, on various basses, and Nic France,Marius Rodrigues on drums
Mark Lockheart is one of the most distinctive and creative musicians on the current British music scene. As a saxophonist and composer, his work often defies categorisation and crosses the boundaries of the jazz, new music and folk worlds. 'Lockheart is a consummate saxophonist and a original and versatile composer', The Rough Guide to Jazz tells us. Mark toured extensively with Django Bates' Delightful Precipice, performing at many international festivals including Berlin, Molde and Willisau, and recording with jazz, folk and pop artists June Tabor, Billy Jenkins, Stereolab, Jah Wobble, Robert Wyatt, Prefab Sprout, Don Um Romao ,Thomas Dolby, and more recently Anja Garbarek and Radiohead. Mark's latest album, Shapeshifter, with Huw V Williams, Double Bass, and Jay Davis, was released in March this year.
