Alexander Hawkins Posted January 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2011 Dear all - a quick plug. Due to our bass and drums going to live abroad (to New York and Barcelona - those scenes' gain!), my Ensemble will be undergoing a personnel change in April. However, before then, we have one final show, and it would be great if you were able to come along. Evan Parker has invited us to play on the first night of a mini-festival - 'Might I Suggest?' - he is curating at the Vortex. The concert is at 8.30pm on Wednesday January 26th. So, for the last time for a while, it'll be Orphy Robinson, marimba and steel pan; Otto Fischer, guitar; Hannah Marshall, 'cello; Dominic Lash, double bass; and Javier Carmona, drums and percussion (alongside yours truly on piano). Tickets available here...and please do say hello if you're able to make it! I'm sure there will be some discounted copies of the album lying around too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
