Event information

A return to OTO for the legendary “improv-Super Group” (Timeout) Bruise. Led by Bass saxophonist Tony Bevan, Bruise has been described as having “a joined at the head, heart and hips, genius, genre-busting line-up” (AllaboutJazz) and “everything that Supersilent would like to be but aren’t” (Timeout). Famed for their soaring, lyrical, epic lunar soundscapes and razor-sharp, off-centre grooves, Bruise “will convert anybody with the sheer intensity of their playing” (Timeout).

Tony Bevan – Soprano, Tenor and Bass Saxophones
Orphy Robinson – Tuned Percussion, Electronics
John Edwards – Bass
Mark Sanders – Drums
Ashley Wales – Electronics

“the most kick-arse electro-acoustic group in Europe” (Timeout)

“Jazz has famously been dubbed "the sound of surprise," but the improvising band Bruise - with their astonishing combination of diverse sounds in one rampaging quintent - truly create the sound of incredulity.” (Morning Star)
