Dave Stapleton Quintet
A return visit from Dave Stapleton after a thrilling performance here in 2009. He studied piano and composition under Keith Tippett and has received rave reviews from the national press and appeared at major UK and European jazz festivals. He already has four albums as leader and draws upon a formidable grasp of jazz, classical and world styles. Dave's music is as approachable as Jarrett or EST but with an energy of the Messengers or Cannonball Adderley.
"There's some excellent thematic writing here ... stays in the memory long after the record has finished"
Jazzwise
"As always with Stapleton's band everybody plays as if they couldn't think of anything they'd rather be doing"
