Kit Downes Quintet

Mercury-nominated Brad Mehldau-ish pianist Downes apears here with his new five-piece band complete with Lucy Railton on cello and James Allsopp on sax. Playing texturally lush music from his latest album 'Quiet Tiger', Downes' penchant for dream-like melodies and classically influenced themes helps create expansive and exciting music steeped in deep collective improvisation.
