Miles Spilsbury
post-bop fusion spiritual jazz
Influences: Don Cherry, Billy Harper, Art Ensemble of Chicago
Miles Spilsbury plays tenor and soprano saxophone, EWI, flute, and electronics, and makes warm, expansive music that moves between structured compositions and free textural improvisation. The sound blends fusion and new-age textures with the spirit of great improvising ensembles. He has worked with Carlos Niño, Puma Blue, and Nate Mercereau, and this night's quintet, with synthesiser, keytar, modular synth, modified drum kit, and bass, previews new material from the 'Spirit Level' release.
Personnel:
Miles Spilsbury (tenor saxophone, soprano saxophone, EWI, flute, electronics, synthesiser, sampling)
Harvey Grant (synthesizer, keytar, electronics)
Rosie Turton (modular synthesiser)
Jake Long (modified drum kit, percussion)
