Don’t miss the award winning Charlotte Glasson Band’s only performance in Cornwall, promoting their new album ‘Bonito.’ Filled with colourful grooves, lush ballads and high energy swing it will be a night to remember. Since winning the ‘Best Newcomer Award’ in Marlborough Jazz Festival, the Charlotte Glasson Band have been wowing audiences from many jazz festivals including- London Jazz Festival, Southport Jazz Festival, Swanage, Teignmouth, Ealing and Oxford Jazz festivals.
Stylistically Charlotte’s compositions draw on influences from all around the globe, Latin rhythms, New Orleans Mardi Gras, Swing, Arabic, Spaghetti Western and Gypsy Jazz influences but she has the vision to combine these into something that is uniquely her own, upbeat and bouncy on the surface but with all sorts of interesting twists and turns as a sub-text. And she uses the enormously varied instrumental resources at her disposal in an unfailingly imaginative way – her own armoury alone contains a small orchestra’s worth of sonic possibilities.
“Versatile contemporary jazz and fusion saxophonist/multi-instrumentalist/composer plays diverse originals all laced with her own bluesy, expressive sax work.” – Time Out
