Raffy Bushman
post-bop hip-hop jazz nu-jazz
Influences: Keith Jarrett, Robert Glasper, Brad Mehldau
Raffy Bushman is a pianist who has shaped the UK jazz underground through decade-long dialogue between jazz and hip-hop aesthetics, expanding into classical crossover with orchestral projects before returning to the piano trio format. This album launch performance captures a mature artist bringing years of creative experience to the traditional trio setting, exploring the jazz tradition of recontextualisation and innovation.
