Join us for an unforgettable evening of exciting original music from London-based jazz pianist and composer Jonny Liebeck. With his band of top young musicians, he will be performing tunes from his latest EP ‘Influences’ featuring compositions inspired by contemporary jazz and electronic dance music genres such as Jungle, Breakbeat and Deep House.
Expect a fusion of soulful jazz harmony, luscious sound textures, lyrical guitar & sax melodies, groovy basslines and intricate breakbeats to get you up on your feet this Friday night!
A graduate of the Royal Academy of Music & Trinity Laban, Jonny gigs all over London and has performed at many London venues including the Southbank Centre, Royal Albert Hall, 606 Club, Pizza Express, 91 Living Room, Rich Mix, Toulouse Lautrec, Bush Hall & Jazz Cafe Posk. In 2019, he played keyboards for Mica Paris at The Round Chapel, Clapton and performed with Cuban jazz violinist Omar Puente at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
This is jazz but with at least one foot on the dancefloor…

“a jazz musician who dares to do things differently. His range of influences is probably unique. There is almost certainly no other musician on the London music scene (as lively, diverse, and open to new ideas as it is), who has found such instinctively musical ways to combine jazz and electronic dance music. It is almost as if he is creating a new art form.”
