For those still unfamiliar with the artist and her work, Jasmine Myra is a saxophonist, composer and bandleader from Leeds but now based in London. She was part of the bustling, creative, cross-genre music scene in Leeds where she surrounded herself with some of the best young talent in the north of England. Her original instrumental music has a euphoric and uplifting sound, influenced by artists as diverse as Bonobo, Olafur Arnalds and Kenny Wheeler, artists whose music shares an emotive quality that you can also hear in Jasmine’s own compositions She signed to Gondwana Records in early 2022 and worked with label owner and producer Matthew Halsall (whose keen ear for talent helped bring the music of GoGo Penguin, Mammal Hands and Hania Rani to the wider world), to deliver her much acclaimed debut album "Horizons" in summer 2022. It's great to have her back in the city of her birth once again, where it all began, and also back at the Brudenell with DJ Lubi, a grass roots jazz promoter who'se been suppoting her music since day one.
Support comes from a familiar face at Brudenell Social Club....pianist Simeon Walker.
