Tristan Banks Quartet | Flex (Live at Love Supreme Festival 2023)

Recorded Live at Love Supreme Festival June 30th 2023 Flex from the album "View From Above" Featuring Paul Booth, John Crawford and Davide Mantovani Debut Album by drummer/composer/producer Tristan Banks, draws on over 30 years of experience as a sideman for many grammy award winning and platinum selling artists. Mixing influences from the jazz, latin jazz and fusion idioms, the music is a unique combination of high-octane virtuosic performance and sublimely melodic composition. Banks unifies his long standing musical friends Paul Booth, John Crawford and Davide Mantovani to help him articulate his musical vision. Tristan’s debut album is due to be released on the Ubuntu Music record label on March 31st 2023. “The idea was to push the acoustic jazz quartet format to the limit, being able to re-image the possibilities that the classic saxophone, piano, bass, drums line-up can manifest, and by being conscious of the sonic traditions that are typically replayed to confirm the listeners tastes while avoiding the genres timbral qliches.” “I have always had an interest in music that makes you move as well as simulating the mind with musical interplay and deeper compositional concepts, so the idea was to select tunes that I had written over the last 15 years and record them in a live performance setting with no click track or isolation recording techniques. This created a perfect environment to generate and capture the musical energy of the performance.” #jazzuk #album #viewfromabove
