Binker Golding/John Edwards/Steve Noble PLUS Amy Gadiaga
Our first live gig of 2022 features the highly acclaimed trio of-
Binker Golding - tenor saxophone
John Edwards - Double bass
Steve Noble - drums
The trio will be performing tracks from their recently released album Moon Day. Recorded during a gap between the various lockdowns of 2020, you can sense the release from the musicians as they combine after enforced isolation with a telepathic sense of where to push each other. Noble interjecting both chaos and order from the drums; Edwards the rocket fuel propelling the unit on; and Golding soaring and cutting through on sax. You will not find a better showcase of these musicians’ phenomenal abilities. This is free jazz at its most compelling and most engaging. “Moon Day” is undoubtedly a future jazz classic.
Steve Noble studied with Nigeria master drummer Elkan Ogunde and in the early 1980s was a member of Rip Rig and Panic, touring extensively throughout Europe and England. Since then he has worked in a variety of musical contexts but has been extensively involved in improvised music through work with a wide range of musicians.
