Bands touring this month with Jazz Services’ support: You can click on the band’s name to find out more about who they are and where they will be playing in the near future, read their biographies or check what CDs they have released so far. Indigo Kid Released in April 2012, the debut album from Dan Messore’s contemporary four-piece group on the Babel label featured the talents of Iain Ballamy, who served as the guitarist’s mentor at the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama as well as
producing and recording the album. However, the star saxophonist was no means the lynchpin of the group - Indigo Kid revolves around Dan’s imaginative compositions and the collective interplay of the whole band, which for this tour features the excellent Trish Clowes on sax duties alongside Calum Gourlay on bass and Gethin Jones on drums. Dan’s tunes might be rooted in contemporary jazz but as an open-minded music lover he incorporates a range of influences into his music – the keen-eared will pick out folk-inspired inflections from around the world as well as hints of the more esoteric side of ‘70s rock music.

David Gordon Trio Pianist David Gordon takes his internationally acclaimed trio on the road to showcase their recently-recorded new album, The David Gordon Trio Speaks Latin. As the title might suggest, the recording draws on the musical traditions of Latin jazz but does so in a neatly refreshing fashion. In particular the three musicians examine tunes that capture the revolutionary spirit of 1960s and -‘70s South America, as well some of the continent’s rich tradition of pop music, with tracks by noted composers and pianists from the region and the genre featuring in the set along with David’s original tunes. Helping to redefine the outdated notion that Latin jazz is all bossa nova and salsa, the David Gordon Trio bring their collective talents and influences together into one effortlessly cohesive whole.
