Alice Zawadzki & Friends

Doors 7:45 PM, Music 8:30 PM - 2 sets of music Line-up: Alice Zawadzki - voice Rob Luft - Guitar Misha Mullov-Abbado - Double bass About: ?Loosely connected to the world of jazz, but realistically inhabiting her own realm?, (Clash Magazine), Alice Zawadzki operates in the rich intersections of the jazz, folk, classical and art-pop worlds, ?all propelled with a voice of velvet suppleness and gutsy emotional intensity? (The Arts Desk). The award-winning singer, multi-instrumentalist and composer released her latest highly-lauded album, Za G?rami, with ECM Records in 2024, produced by Manfred Eicher, described by Bayerischer Rundfunk as ?a model of clich?-free beauty?. Tonight sees her collaborate with long term colleagues and two of London?s most esteemed musicians, guitarist Rob Luft and bassist Misha Mullov-Abbado, presenting new music as well as revisiting her 2019 album Within You Is A World Of Spring. Jazzwise called it "tender in spirit and defiantly anti-genre... a cornucopia of delights", Downbeat Magazine described it as ?hued with mystique and eclecticism?, and it appeared in The Guardian?s list of 10 Best Albums of 2019. ?Zawadzki?s talent is bursting at the seams. An exceptional, world-class singer.? Written In Music ?The missing link between Ghost in the Machine-era Police and Hissing of Summer Lawns-era Joni Mitchell? lush and dynamically shifting?fascinating and stunningly original ?
