Thursday 22 May, 9.30pm
Adnams Spiegeltent
Tickets: £10.00 - £18.00
Fast-emerging Scottish composer, producer and multi-instrumentalist corto.alto has been described as a traditional jazz head raised in the age of the internet. The moniker of Glasgow-based Liam Shortall, corto.alto brings a fresh perspective to a heady mix of intuitive improvisation, electronic production, broken beat bounce and bass-heavy dub.
His 2023 debut album, Bad With Names, nominated for the 2024 Mercury Prize is an honest and iconoclastic work, challenging the boundaries of contemporary jazz.
Always pushing sonic boundaries, this performance promises subverted expectations and transcendent grooves.
