Event information
Off the Rails is reopening after a major refurbishment of its base at 1 Kew Road, Richmond, during the months of October and November. The premises has now been re-designated as All Bar One. The owners of the former Station Hotel are committed to the building's historic role as a music venue, so it is with great pleasure that we celebrate the resumption of live contemporary jazz here in Richmond on 8 December. There's a special significance in presenting Lydian Collective for this event, since the band was the first ever act to appear at Off the Rails in 2021. The Lydian Collective sound is a unique combination of accessible melodies, accomplished musicianship, hypnotic rhythms and an uplifting vibe, which has already been drawing in audiences from around the world. With over 6 million Spotify streams and more than 2 million YouTube views, London-based instrumental jazz/fusion four-piece Lydian Collective have established themselves as a musical tour de force in the UK and beyond.
Their debut album ‘Adventure’ released on digital, CD and vinyl in March 2018. Within days, it reached the top 10 in the iTunes, Amazon, Google Play and Bandcamp Jazz charts, and had extensive official playlisting on several Spotify editorial favourites, including State of Jazz, Fusion Fest, and Jazz UK. BBC Radio 3’s Nick Luscombe called the album ‘Life affirming music’.
Lydian Collective are: Aaron Wheeler (keys), Sophie Alloway (drums), Ida Hollis (bass) and Dan Lee (guitar).
