Thomas Dixon
Thomas Dixon (Solo Saxophone)
Thomas Dixon is a Newcastle based Saxophonist, DJ/Producer and bandleader. As a solo artist, he focuses on playing with atmosphere, textures, improvised melodies and found sounds to create soundscapes ranging from intimate to otherworldly.
As well as being inspired by the radical free jazz records of the early 1960s, Thomas is also strongly moved by British club culture, and African township folk music, which can be heard clearly in his other musical projects: DILUTEY JUICE and Kancho Club. Inspired by his time in the ICP's Dutch Improv Academy, Thomas founded and facilitated 'Thursday Night Prayer Meeting', which at the time was Newcastle's only free improvised music session, and hosted players such as Joe Mcphee, Steve Noble, Dee Byrne and Mark Sanders.
Thomas Dixon will perform at Jesmond Swimming Pool as part of a new festival initiative to encourage audiences into holistic spaces centred around health and wellbeing. This session was first trialled at Newcastle Festival of Jazz and Improvised Music 2024 with Faye MacCalman, a superb and memorable evening to all that attended and great way to start the festival.
Newcastle Festival of Jazz and Improvised Music is delighted to work in partnership with Jesmond Swimming Pool Friday night Chill Out session. And we do emphasise that this adult only session is for swimming whilst you’re listening.
