SUMMARY:LIVESTREAM - MARK LOCKHEART'S 'DREAMERS'
DESCRIPTION:An unquestionable highlight of 2023 was to have MARK LOCKHEART’S DREAMERS make their SoundCellar debut. When Mark offered to return\, we relaxed our normal ‘gap between visits’ rule and jumped at the opportunity! \nClick here for tickets to attend the physical gig.\nLivestream Ticket link below \nMark is a true ‘legend’ of UK jazz and Dreamers is just oozing with three more top-notch musicians – Elliot Galvin\, Tom Herbert and Dave Smith. \nUrgent and exciting grooves and textures all cleverly crafted together within Lockheart’s unique and memorable melodies\, they can be heard in their full glory on their 2022 album ‘Dreamers’ on Edition Records. \nMark Lockheart has been at the forefront of contemporary music since he first came to prominence with Loose Tubes in the mid-1980s. Since then\, he has become a ‘go to’ for many of today’s top artists\, across many genres\, not least as a member of Polar Bear\, as a featured soloist for acclaimed composer Mark Anthony Turnage\, as a member of The Printmakers and providing wonderful colour to recent albums by Slowly Rolling Camera. \nMark has released many albums under his own name\, ranging from large jazz ensembles (listen to this year’s album ‘Smiling’)\, large orchestral works (check out 2019’s ‘Days On Earth’)\, to smaller ensembles and duos such as his 2019 ‘renaissance’ album ‘Salvator Mundi’ with organist Roger Mayer and his work with recent SoundCellar visitor\, pianist Huw Warren. \nMark’s ensemble Dreamers includes the fantastic combination of Elliot Galvin’s keyboards and electronics\, Tom Herbert’s fabulous bass and the subtle but powerful drums of Dave Smith. Elliot is well known to jazz enthusiasts as a member of Laura Jurd’s Dinosaur\, for his work with Marius Neset and Binker Golding\, and for his own fine albums. Tom is probably best known as an original member of Acoustic Ladyland\, as well as Mercury Music Prize nominated bands Polar Bear and The Invisible. Dave has played with many top artists\, such as Donny McCaslin\, Eddie Henderson\, Iain Ballamy and Seth Lakeman. He was also a member of Cloudmaker’s Trio (who played SoundCellar in 2012) and he toured the world as a member of Robert Plant’s band for 6 years. \n“Built from the past\, but creating vivid potentials for the future\, Dreamers is the stuff all good jazz is made of” Jazzwise **** \n“The sound of surprise is still with us” BBC Music Magazine ****\n \n“State of the art jazz from a master who refuses to stand still and once again sets the bar very high as he journeys on and ever deeper” Marlbank **** \nMark Lockheart – saxophones\nElliot Galvin – keyboards\, Electronics\nTom Herbert – bass guitar\nDave Smith – drums \nThe livestream will be broadcast on YouTube\, via a page available when you purchase a ticket through the link below. \nAll advance ticket buyers will receive an exclusive link to a video of the evening’s performance\, available for one month. \nShare this event

SUMMARY:LAURA JURD & THE DORSET YOUTH JAZZ ORCHESTRA
DESCRIPTION:THIS EVENT IS NOW ‘SOLD OUT’\n \n  \nPLEASE NOTE 7pm start \nThis gig will take place at The Grasshopper\,\n139 – 141 Bournemouth Rd\, Poole BH14 9HT. \nPlease note: If parking in either of the car parks at The Grasshopper\, you must register your vehicle on one of the dedicated terminals at the bar or in the function room. \nTicket link below \nComposer-performer Laura Jurd’s unique voice as an improvising trumpet player is at the heart of everything she creates. Her music celebrates and innovates the rich traditions of jazz and folk music\, digging into something primal and earthy\, whilst taking twists and turns that prove Laura to be one of the UK’s most distinctive composer-performers in contemporary music. \nAs a composer she has collaborated with the London Sinfonietta\, the Festival of New Trumpet Music\, the National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain and the Ligeti Quartet to name a few. She has performed throughout the UK\, Europe and beyond with Mercury-nominated band Dinosaur and under-her own name\, having played the likes of North Sea\, Montréal and Molde International Jazz festivals to name a few. \n“Jurd seems unconcerned by transient fashions or enrolment in any kind of scene\, and pursues a private muse that draws on jazz\, folk traditions from Europe and the Middle East\, and the harmonic language of Stravinsky – yet her work is always spiritedly accessible\, and often suggests wordless songs” – John Fordham\, The Guardian. \nEntry is £10 + booking fee in advance through the below link\, or £12 on the door (cash or card). \nShare this event

SUMMARY:JAKUB KLIMIUK QUINTET feat MARK LOCKHEART
DESCRIPTION:To kick 2025 off perfectly here at SoundCellar\, we have a brilliant young ensemble: the Jakub Klimiuk Quintet\, with very special guest Mark Lockheart. \n \nThis gig will take place at The Grasshopper\,\n139 – 141 Bournemouth Rd\, Poole BH14 9HT. \nPlease note: If parking in either of the car parks at The Grasshopper\, you must register your vehicle on one of the dedicated terminals at the bar or in the function room. \nTicket link below \nJakub Klimiuk Quintet is a London-based ensemble that fuses influences from the Scandinavian improvised scene and contemporary New York jazz\, creating a sound full of exciting tension. The resultant repertoire is a combination of scripted forms and improvised sections\, constantly entwining melodic compositions and experimental sonic escapades. \nThe band’s recent album ”(un)balanced”\, featuring saxophonist Mark Lockheart\, tells the story of seeking balance in today’s reality\, manoeuvring through the overwhelming deluge of information and striving to discover inspiration in everyday routine. We are very excited that SoundCellar favourite Mark will be appearing with Jakub and the band at The Grasshopper. \nThe quintet has performed at major UK jazz venues\, including Vortex Jazz Club\, Pizza Express Live\, 606 Club\, receiving favourable reviews from European press outlets such as UK Jazz News and Jazz Forum. \n“Jakub’s original compositions\, his own playing and that of this fabulous band were also appropriately full of optimism and the promise of good days to come. Nights like this reassure us that the future of jazz is in safe hands.” – UK Jazz News \nJakub Klimiuk is a Polish jazz guitarist and composer based in London. Throughout the years\, he has recorded and shared the stage with the likes of Jonas Kullhammar\, John Horler\, Dave O’Higgins\, Krystyna Stańko and of course Mark Lockheart\, working with both UK-based and international projects.  Jakub first made his mark on the British jazz scene at the EFG London Jazz Festival with his original project.  He is an adventurous composer\, focused on experimenting with musical forms and implementing compositional techniques derived from contemporary classical music into jazz. His original compositions are a unique combination of arranged structures\, often based on counterpoints\, and fully improvised sections. He mentions the current New York scene (Mark Turner\, Jonathan Kreisberg\, Aaron Parks) and Scandinavian musicians like Petter Eldh and Jakob Bro\, as his main influences. \nMark Lockheart needs little introduction to SoundCellar audiences\, having played two fabulous gigs here with his quartet ‘Dreamers’\, the most recent of which was in October 2024.  Mark is undoubtedly one of the foremost saxophonists in the UK\, having been a member of such iconic bands as Loose Tubes\, Perfect Houseplants\, Polar Bear\, The Printmakers and others\, as well having a major body of his own work. \nLine-up:\nJakub Klimiuk – Guitar\nMark Lockheart – Tenor & Soprano Saxophone\nSimeon May – Tenor Saxophone\, Bass Clarinet\nCody Moss – Piano\nKinzan – Double bass\nAdam Merrell – Drums \nEntry is £17.50 (no booking fee) in advance through the below link\, or £20 on the door (cash or card). \nAll advance ticket buyers will receive an exclusive link to a video of the evening’s performance\, available for one month \nShare this event

DESCRIPTION:SoundCellar and the Swanage Jazz Festival join forces to present a series of concerts in The Studio at The Mowlem Theatre\, Swanage\, featuring an evening of world jazz with guitarist Nicolas Meier and pianist Alex Hutton. \nThis gig will take place in The Studio at The Mowlem Theatre\,\nShore Road\, Swanage\, BH19 1DD. \nTicket link below \nUK-based guitarist Nicolas Meier has carved out a reputation as one of the world’s most original and uniquely talented guitarists. Drawing from a love of Turkish\, Eastern & Middle Eastern music\, Flamenco\, Tango\, and more—all mixed with jazz—Meier’s versatility and musical fluency extend well beyond that\, even. (… so much so that his considerable talents drew the attention of rock guitar legend Jeff Beck\, who made Nicolas a mainstay in The Jeff Beck Group\, taking him on two world tours over the last several years.) Nicolas has released numerous albums under his own name and\, in addition to touring with Jeff Beck\, has worked with internationally renowned musicians such as Vinnie Colaiuta\, Tim Garland\, Gary Husband\, Dave O’Higgins\, and many others. In addition to this\, in 2022\, he toured Europe with his group\, supporting rock guitar icon Steve Vai. \nPianist Alex Hutton is one of the UK Jazz’s hidden treasures. A fine composer\, with an ear for folk and classical influences\, he is a gifted\, thoughtful improviser and a mainstay of the London Jazz scene who has worked with the leading figures from Jim Mullen and Pete King to Pete Wareham. Hutton’s own albums have been noted for a move away from conventional piano trio music\, with a search for fresh approaches to the song form and an emphasis on capturing a broad spectrum of textures. \nNicolas Meier: Guitars\nAlex Hutton: Piano \nAdmission is £14 (+£1.09 booking fee). \nShare this event
