Mark Guiliana is an acclaimed drummer, composer, educator, producer and founder of Beat Music Productions; through which, he released records of both Beat Music and with his Jazz Quartet.

Over the past decade, Guiliana’s extensive touring has taken him across six continents with artists including Meshell Ndegeocello, Gretchen Parlato, Avishai Cohen, Matisyahu,Lionel Loueke, Now vs. Now, Dhafer Youssef, and his own groups, Beat Music and Heernt.

In June 2015 Mark will release the debut album from his Jazz Quartet on Beat Music Productions, featuring Jason Rigby on tenor saxophone and Shai Maestro on piano.

Still in his early thirties, Guiliana, recognized by the New York Times as “a drummer around whom a cult of admiration has formed,” has earned international acclaim for his innovative and creative style.

Time Out London sums him up perfectly: “What happens when you add hard bop drum masters Elvin Jones and Art Blakey to a 1980s Roland 808 drum machine, divide the result by J Dilla and then multiply to the power of Squarepusher? Answer: Mark Guiliana.”

The Picturehouse Cafe Bar is open beforehand for delicious food and drinks.
