Pianist, keyboardist and composer Bill Laurance has won multiple Grammy Awards as a member of Snarky Puppy, the band that used jazz, R&B and hip-hop elements in a formula that was an instant hit with audiences. His most recent album, “Cables”, proves once again his talent as a solo pianist, colouring his original compositions with electronic textures and rhythms. With his trio, Bill Laurance performed in 2018 at the International Piano Trio Festival of the Ronnie Scott London club. The recording of that concert and the release of this 2020 album “Live at Ronnie Scott’s” are considered an event on the European jazz scene. Jazzwise Magazine names it “A raw, energised, acoustic piano tour-de-force”. The trio attains perfect equilibrium between the traditional approach to and a new vision of jazz. Inspired by the live recordings of Oscar Peterson, Ahmad Jamal and Bill Evans, Bill Laurance Trio imagined a cinematic journey through original compositions and passionate and colourful improvisation.
