Emily Francis Trio
With a fascinating mix of influences including 60s & 70s-era electronic jazz, psychedelia and even prog rock, Emily Francis-piano/keys, Trevor Boxall-bass & Jamie 'Drumcat' Murray-drums have created an accessible, yet harmonically rich landscape of melody and groove. Now approaching their 10th Anniversary, the band have a new EP, “Atomic” which they describe as taking “a more direct approach, placing melody front and centre, employing cinematic-style leitmotif, and propelling the music forward with driving rhythm”. Featured at the 606 last year as part of our 2023 EFG London Jazz Festival schedule, Emily and the Trio’s live shows deliver excitement from start to finish!
“Francis transcends her many influences to create a sound that is very much her own, skilfully blending acoustic and electric elements to create a rich tapestry” The Jazz Mann; “A band with a fresh and very alive sound with a keen ear for progressive jazz” MusicIsMySanctuary.com; “Emily Francis’ new trio album…is a thing of rare beauty” Jazzwise
