JohnnyHunter   10 #1 Posted July 9, 2013 The 'Jazz at the Lescar' series are putting on the saxophonist from Squarepusher's Jazz trio, Mick Beck.  Here's some footage of Mick playing with the back in 2005. Based in Sheffield, and a fixture on the UK improvised music scene for many years, and collaborator with the likes of Derek Bailey and Paul Hession as well as Sqaurepusher, Mick is joined for this gig of slightly more straight ahead music by three open-minded and exploratory musicians from the younger generation, drawn from the Manchester, Leeds and Sheffield jazz scenes. They share a common intensity and in combination will bring rhythmic looseness, strong group interaction, and harmonic freedom to the music, to match the leader's improvisational flights on the saxophone. Expect to hear tunes inspired and composed by the likes of Ornette Coleman and John Coltrane.  Lescar Hotel, Sharrowvale road, Sheffield S11 8ZF £5 entry Doors at 8.30pm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
