Iain Ballamy Quartet @ Merlin Theatre, Frome
Iain Ballamy - saxophones
Jason Rebello - piano
Percy Pursglove - trumpet and double bass
Mark Whitlam - drums
A new quartet featuring world-renowned pianist Jason Rebello, the remarkable trumpeter and bassist Percy Pursglove and the superb brush strokes of drummer Mark Whitlam.
The program will span decades and genres with fresh takes on well-loved standards and new original material by Ballamy which is being aired for the first time in preparation for a future recording for ECM records.
“My first gig at the Merlin was in 2001 and led to my moving to Frome. Its great to be back playing on home ground with my new quartet.”
