Henry Lowther and fringe Magnetic @ the Vortex 19.6.10

Saturday 19 | 8.30pm | £12* | Still Waters
Henry Lowther’s Still Waters was born out a long association and friendship between Henry and bassist Dave Green. It is now one of the most accomplished, tightly-ensembled and creative bands around.

Although a classic quintet of two front line and rhythm, Still Waters plays radical and original music, ranging from gentle, quietly pastoral and melodic music, reflecting the band’s name, through to dynamic, free improvisation. ‘Meltingly attractive solos, startling originality...’ (Chris Parker).

Fringe Magnetic
Trumpeter Rory Simmons Fringe Magnetic plays loose grooves with free vocal improvisation, fusing chamber music and cutting-edge jazz. Featuring some of the most exciting and dynamic young musicians from the London jazz, classical and improvised scene.

‘Stunning new project with an extended woodwind and string section. The nine piece create multi-layered orchestral sounds laced with flitting folk reels, modern harmony and topped with cutting edge improv’ (Time Out).

*Evening ticket holders can attend the late night jam for a reduced rate of £3

Saturday 19 | 10.30pm – 1.00am | £5 | Book online
Tomorrow's Warriors JALC Jam Session
