Bebop Spoken There

Brian Harvey: "The exciting day arrived and we [as under age school boys] snuck into the [pub's] rehearsal room, sat awkwardly to attention on hard chairs in a row facing the band and heard our first - very loud - live jazz. What an occasion that was - we even drank beer because we understood that's what jazz people did and that's what the band were drinking." - (Just Jazz June 2020)

Dave Rempis: “Ten years from now, I can see musicians streaming concerts in real time and charging a minimal amount for people to watch.” - (DownBeat September 2013)

Jenni Molly Trio @ Lanercost Priory Saturday May 15

Jenni Molloy (bass), Stuart MacDonald (saxes) and Chris Sykes (drums/ percussion). Historic Lanercost Priory and it’s acoustics create a unique atmosphere, one that brings the best out of musicians, and this trio of articulate, nimble and ‘totally together’ musicians thrilled from the off. Playing compositions from Molloy’s acclaimed 2009 album Bach ReLoaded the band moved seamlessly through tunes inspired by the likes of Miles Davis, Charlie Parker and Wayne Shorter with some cleverly disguised bits from Bach himself cropping up every so often. It’s hard to pick a favourite from this wonderful set but for me Bird Invention, Little by Little and, Jenni’s homeland South Africa inspired District 6 Revisited were the highlights. This band deserves greater exposure – listen to Bach ReLoaded and you’ll know why. David Gosling
