Twelves Trio @ Jazz Club 27th May 2009

We’re back with another Podcast. This time it’s the turn of Twelves Trio (who aren’t really a Trio at all) who were our guests at Jazz Club in May. We bring you “Candle” written by Tenor player Mark Hanslip from the band’s set. If you enjoy this taster podcast, you can listen to the whole gig at http://www.birminghamjazz.co.uk/jazzclub.htm#tt

Remember that The Rainbow, the home of Jazz Club, is still being threatened by closure due to a EPA Abatement order. Please do all you can to keep this cultural hub alive and well. :-)

Twelves Trio

Wednesday 27th May

Jazz Club at The Rainbow
8.30pm ( band on at 9.00pm)
£3.00

A stripped-down version of bass player Riaan Vosloo’s Examples of Twelves band which features Mark Hanslip on Tenor and Tim Giles of Fraud fame on drums. Drawing comparisons with Polar Bear, the music is a is a heady mix of Coltrane-esque ballads, dark twenty-first century waltzes, subtle hooks and tumbling Mingus-inspired grooves . With influences ranging from American magic realist dramas to obscure hip-hop and traditional folk, this is perfect Jazz Club fare.
