Mercury shortlist rising star.Welsh pianist, Joe Webb unveils his new album, Neath Beat, released on Edition Records.

Webb’s blend of fearless technique, swagger and melodic clarity meets the dynamic support of bassist Will Sach and drummer Sam Jesson.

The music fuses Art Tatum-like agility with British, hook-focused immediacy.

There’s even some Oasis-esque confidence and directness in the mix.

No wonder Webb’s been championed by the likes of Wynton Marsalis, Jamie Cullum and Jools Holland then.Joe Webb’s regarded as one of the most formidable new jazz pianists to emerge in recent years - a musician with a melodic instinct that lands with clarity and purpose.

His rise has been driven by acclaim and commanding live performances.

All further amplified by his 2025 Mercury Prize shortlist for Hamstrings & Hurricanes.With Sach and Jesson, Webb continues his “mixtape” concept on Neath Beat, merging the spark of his live sets with carefully crafted compositions.

The result is bold and rhythmically charged - virtuosity delivered with style, lift and undeniable presence.
