London-Based Quartet ‘Bag of Bones’ Delivers Compelling Ensemble Music with their Debut Album ‘No One Gets Saved’, Traversing the Entire Spectrum of Sound Colors, Rhythms, and Moods with Vibrant Energy
The London-based quartet has honed its chemistry through many hours playing together, exploring all of the history of jazz and settling on loose compositions as vehicles to explore free improvising. Stone-Lonergan, Simpson, Hayhurst and Glaser all contribute compositions, which are all designed to experiment with the freedom of music within the structure of a loose container.
The music spans a large emotional spectrum from dynamic and spirited exchanges among the group members to expansive blues swagger and powerful collective free blowing that pays homage to legendary avant-garde music movements of the 60s and 70s.
These four outstanding musicians, each with distinctive personalities, generate a compelling sound that traverses a wide spectrum of sound colours, rhythms, and moods, infused with vibrant energy. Possessing a deep appreciation for lyrical melodies, tonal precision, and dynamics, the quartet cultivates an animated interplay with subtle atmospheric shifts in harmony, texture and rhythm.
