Dan Forshaw

contemporary jazz hard bop

Influences: Horace Silver, Art Blakey, Wayne Shorter

Dan Forshaw leads his quartet on saxophone, playing tightly arranged contemporary jazz with strong melodic hooks and driving grooves. The band's sound draws on the hard bop and post-bop tradition, with sharp unison lines and room for extended improvised solos. Forshaw is a fixture of the British jazz circuit, and his quartet's regular residencies make it a reliable night out for straight-ahead jazz listeners.
