Martin Speake Trio with Jeff Williams & Mike Outram – Paying Show

Alto saxophonist Martin Speake brings together two of his favourite musical collaborators, the long-time New York-based drummer Jeff Williams (Stan Getz, Joe Lovano, Dave Liebman) and top UK guitarist Mike Outram (Asaf Sirkis, Tim Whitehead, Gareth Lockrane), in a unique and intimate trio featuring meditative ballads, trance-like grooves, minimalism, jazz standard songs, Arabic-influenced music, heavy metal guitar and more.

“Martin Speake is one of the most interesting and rewarding alto saxophonists now playing jazz on any continent.” Thomas Conrad  Jazz Times”There is no musician with such complete control of the sounds coming out of a guitar. Mike Outram plays the sweetest wailing rock guitar in Britain. It’s a sound of great beauty.” Seb Scotney, London Jazz

“In a career that has spanned more than 40 years, drummer Jeff Williams has honed a sound that seamlessly blends a sinewy, propulsive rhythmic sense with a masterful appreciation of space and atmosphere.” Matthew Miller, The New York City Jazz Record
