Byron Wallen

British trumpeter Byron Wallen sometimes suggests an absorbing fusion of the fragmentary lyricism of late period Miles Davis and the spiky euphoria of Don Cherry.

Just as frequently he will seem closer to Asian or North African music, or reveal an informed appreciation of some of the earliest trumpet pioneers in jazz, and be equally at ease playing postbop, Talvin Singh's music, or Craig David's.

Byron will be joined on stage by resident pianist/owner of Bennigans John Leighton and his trio feat Daniel Casimir on bass and Mike Clowes on Drums.
