The Cloudmakers Trio

Original music by Jim Hart that lies somewhere between New York's ‘downtown’ sound and the modern European tradition. Their sounds defy category yet draw influences from a diverse range of traditions, while maintaining a devotion to raw energy, in-the-moment risk taking and a dedication to groove and rhythm. A rhythm section as capable of creating raw power as they are abstract sound worlds, the trio is one of the most exciting contemporary groups working in creative music today. Jim is joined by Michael Janisch on double bass and Dave Smith on drums. "Three of the most inventive players on the UK scene" - All About Jazz.
