Flo Redmonds
Although still relatively new to the UK jazz scene, saxophonist Flo Redmonds has already garnered significant attention for her powerful sound, creative approach and flowing technique. An alumna of the National Youth Jazz Orchestra she includes work at major UK venues alongside the likes of Cassie Kinoshi, Daniel Casimir, Rio Kai and Georgia Cécile, and was chosen by Jazzwise for their prestigious "Future Movers" feature. Tonight’s programme is an exploration of the players and music that have influenced Flo’s music to this point, including Michael Brecker, Chris Potter, Walt Weiskopf and Sam Rivers along with Flo’s own compositions and pieces inspired in part by other notable artists, such as Brad Mehldau and Cécile McLorin Salvant. Also appearing tonight will be upcoming young pianist Cody Moss with Murray Dare-bass & Aaron Carpenter-drums.
