Jason Rebello Quartet
“...contemporary jazz chops in spades”
London Jazz
A multi-award winner and ferociously talented musician, Jason Rebello has been at the forefront of the international music scene for over 20 years. His extraordinary ability is highlighted by the fact that he was already an established performer by the age of 21, being described by Jazz FM as “[one of] the most gifted and fluent pianists to emerge in Britain [today]…”. And as well as his own groove/crossover music he also found time to work with the likes of Wayne Shorter, Gary Burton, Branford Marsalis, Carleen Anderson and Omar. However, it was in 1998 when he was invited to replace the late Kenny Kirkland in Sting’s band that Jason found international fame, touring the world with Sting for more than six years before moving to the band of guitar legend Jeff Beck. In 2013 he released his first, acclaimed solo album in 13 years, "Anything But Look", while his 2016 album, “Held” on Edition Records was nominated for a British Jazz Award. Lately working and recording with another outstanding British musician, saxophonist Tim Garland, Jason’s remarkable technique and fiery creativity have made him one of the UK’s finest jazz pianists. For this 606 show he will be appearing with his brilliant Quartet, including saxophonist Pat Clahar (Incognito, Julian Joseph, Bill Bruford), the great UK bassist Orlando le Fleming and superb drummer Troy Miller. Their set will feature, according to Jason, "tunes by Wayne Shorter and Kenny Kirkland in a swinging, joyful jazz setting".
