Mark Lockheart’s ‘Dreamers’
Mark Lockheart – saxophones
John Parricelli – guitars
Tom Herbert – bass guitar
Dave Smith – drums
This all star group explores Mark’s multi-faceted outlook on music through a new set of original compositions with this bold and unique sounding group. Urgent and exciting grooves and improvising are all cleverly crafted together within Lockheart’s unique and memorable melodies. Wide ranging influences from Ellington, Shorter and John Zorn to the Beatles and even Kraftwerk!
“From Loose Tubes to Polar Bear and beyond, Lockheart’s capacity to be ahead of the jazz curve is undeniable. In this new band his combination of lyrical economy and harmonic creativity has found three improvisatory soulmates who clearing know how to make the most of his compositions in their own terms” – Jazzwise magazine
"The sound of surprise is still with us” – BBC Music Magazine ****
"State of the art jazz from a master who refuses to stand still and once again sets the bar very high as he journeys on and ever deeper” – Marlbank ****
"Built from the past, but creating vivid potentials for the future, Dreamers is the stuff all good jazz is made of" – Jazzwise ****
