Dark Circles returns to Crown House for the final time in 2025 with a wonderful evening of music from a trio giving their very first live performance together. What an honour it is to host three such accomplished musicians in our beautiful intimate venue. Meet the trio!
Nick Woodmansey A.K.A. Emanative – Drums & Percussion
Led by drummer and producer Nick Woodmansey, Emanative have created a cosmic strand of multi-cultural UK jazz with African, Indian and Middle Eastern influences unlike any other act on the UK scene. Initially Emanative was an output for Woodmansey’s more beat-led productions which he began releasing in 2008. Over the course of well over a decade and a multitude of singles and full-length albums, the project has morphed – emanated – into a collaborative, jazz-influenced, outward-facing globally-inspired collective.
Suman Joshi – Bass
The driving force behind Eparapo is bassist, composer & producer Suman Joshi. Afrobeat supergroup Eparapo, came together during the unprecedented events of the pandemic and the Black Lives Matter movement, and despite being a project born from the privations of lockdown, their music is ultimately an expression of hope, resilience & resurgence. Joshi has also been a member of Dele Sosimi's Afrobeat Orchestra for over 15 years and was also bassist with UK jazz ensemble Collocutor and fusion project Cubafrobeat.
Chris Williams – Saxophone
Woodwind player and composer Chris Williams has been a stalwart in the rich London experimental scene for more than 20 years. Known for his fearless approach to improvising, Chris collaborates with a plethora of projects exploring improvisation and experimental music ranging from Mercury-finalists Led Bib and Sam Eastmond plays John Zorn’s Bagatelles to Sarathy Korwar and The Heliocentrics, alongside his co-led projects Let Spin and improv duo LEDLEY
