drumsAbout
This high energy sextet, with African and Jazz influences, was formed in late 2016 to perform the music of two titans of Jazz - Bheki Mseluku and McCoy Tyner. It was an ambition born of love and experience; Simon Thorpe, the original bassist and John Donaldson toured with Bheki, while Jason Yarde worked with McCoy. These associations bring an authority and authenticity to the group's music as well as having a strong influence on their original material.
