Band on the Wall presents Free Jazz – a free-entry event showcasing some of the most exciting new artists pushing genre boundaries, playing jazz, electronic, hip-hop, funk, soul and experimental sounds. Sign up for free entry and discover new music from the likes of Aeon Fitch, Mr Mustard, Lieko Quintet and Moon Thieves.
Aeon Fitch
Aeon Fitch is a multi instrumentalist based in Manchester UK. With music influences like Sigur Ros, Bjørk, Binkbeats and Bill Laurance he has created an ethereal sound like no other.
Mr Mustard
Mr Mustard are a new Manchester outfit that you need to hear, stay tuned for releases, but in the mean time come down to Free Jazz to see their live show.
Lieko Quintet
Lieko Quintet is a Manchester-based group turning contemporary jazz on its head with melodic, groove-infused compositions. Treading a path somewhere between soul music and folk song, they use melody as a focal point for moving between riff-based interplay and free-form improvisation. When blended together with the rhythmic precision of old school funk and cathartic energy of Nigerian afrobeat, the result is a brain-melting concoction of new-world explorations. Their new EP ‘Amethyst’ lands on 4th January.
Moon Thieves
Moon Thieves fuse live electronica with funk pop in an effervescent blend of 2-piece instrumental wizardry.
This is a standing show.
