Iain Ballamy & Rob Luft
Leytonstone Ex-Servicemens Club, Leytonstone Social Club, E11 3DB , [Venue Details]This stunning duo of two world class musicians, saxophonist Iain Ballamy and guitarist Rob Luft will literally dazzle listeners with their original compositions and harmonically sophisticated new takes on jazz standards.
They released a 5 star rated album Riversphere last year with Conor Chaplin on base and Corrie Dick on drums but tonight they have pared it back to a duo.
Iain Ballamy was featured as one of the world’s all-time greats in BBC Music Magazine’s “100 Jazz Legends”. The Guardian described him as “one of the world’s distinctive saxophone voices”
He discovered saxophone in 1978 with three lessons and his first professional gig was in 1980. He played Ronnie Scotts as Iain Ballamy Quartet at age 20. He was a founding member of Loose Tubes in 1984. First recording with Billy Jenkins in 1985, his first solo album, Balloon Man, was released in 1988. Clive Davis’ review in The Times described it as “possibly the most assured session so far by any player of his generation”
