Ant Law brings his incredible live band back to Manchester, for a live concert and masterclass!
Guitarist and composer Ant Law will perform live with his celebrated quintet, featuring Mike Chillingworth (saxophone), Ivo Neame (piano), Tom Farmer (bass) and James Maddren (drums).
Recently Ant has been heard in Tim Garland’s band with Jason Rebello & Asaf Sirkis. He featured on albums Songs To The North Sky, Return To The Fire and ONE which was shortlisted for a Grammy and won the Jazzwise Best Album award.
His wide-ranging musical tastes have seen him explore the rhythms of Indian classical music alongside drummer/konnakol vocalist Asaf Sirkis and bassist Matt Ridley in the Art of Rhythm Trio, and work with highly-regarded classical percussionist Dame Evelyn Glennie in the HLK trio.
In partnership with NQ Jazz and The Yard. Made possible by Arts Council England’s Supporting Grassroots Live Music fund and the Haworth Charitable Trust.
