Ed Jones & Emil Karlsen
Saxophonist Ed Jones has played with jazz legends Horace Silver, George Benson, Dr Lonnie Smith, Dick Heckstall-Smith, Orphy Robinson and Byron Wallen, and as a session musician he has worked with the likes of Us3 , Terry Callier, Nostalgia 77, D’Angelo, Bootsy Collins, Chaka Khan and Tina Turner!
Emil Karlsen is a Norwegian improvising drummer currently based in the UK. Described as a “significant addition to the UK free jazz scene” and an “exceptional improv drummer”, he’s establishing himself on the improvised music circuit working the span from free improvisation to free jazz. Occupied with exploring the timbral and sonic possibilities of the drum kit, he performs with Philipp Wachsmann, Matthew Bourne, Phil Durrant, and the London Improvisers Orchestra to mention some.
The duo put out this excellent album last year called ‘From where light falls’, on FMR records:
