Description
David Sanborn’s soulful saxophone has been one of the signature sounds in contemporary jazz for some four decades, in a career that’s travelled from James Brown and David Bowie to Jaco Pastorius and Gil Evans, as well as a string of landmark recordings of his own.
Following 2013’s sold out Barbican show – a terrific acoustic set with Bob James – he returns to the fiercely grooving electric fusion that defined his blistering live performances through the 80s and 90s.
The duo of jazz guitar hero John Scofield and vocalist/pianist Jon Cleary – Brit-born, but steeped in the deep traditions of New Orleans, takes its cue from Scofield’s Piety Street recording from 2009; a heady mix of blues and gospel flavours inspired by the deep South.
Produced by the Barbican in association with Serious
