Award-winning tenor saxophonist Harben Kay celebrates the release of their third album, The World I Live In — out October 3 — a powerful reflection on change and the creativity that emerges in times of transformation.
Quickly becoming recognised as one of the UK’s most creative and virtuosic jazz artists, Kay has released two critically acclaimed albums, completed four UK tours, and performed at iconic venues including Ronnie Scott’s, The Royal Albert Hall, and The Vortex. Their ability to traverse the jazz landscape — from their roots in Scotland to stages across international cities — shines through in a sound that is both globally influenced and unmistakably their own. The autobiographical nature of their compositions adds a personal touch, creating a connection between the artist and the listener.
Don’t miss this chance to experience Harben Kay and their world-class band live, performing music from The World I Live In and beyond.
‘A formidable saxophonist and composer… Quite simply, outstanding!’ Nick Lea, Jazz Views
‘Kay and their impressive trio have created a nostalgic jazz album that highlights the ensemble's chemistry beautifully, through exciting melodies and captivating musicality.’ Isabel Marquez, Jazz in Europe
‘tenor saxophonist [Harben] Kay’s second album has a beautiful poise and assurance, that radiates from every groove’ **** Chris Searle, Morning Star
