Quiet Night in: Kourosh Kanani & Matt Davies

Kourosh Kanani and Matt Davies are redefining the boundaries of contemporary music by weaving the rich traditions of Iran, India and Armenia into a modern jazz tapestry.Through Kourosh's virtuosic and polyrhythmic guitar work and Matt's innovative use of electronics and rethinking of the drum kit their duo creates a powerful dialogue between important ancient cultural legacies and cutting-edge soundscapes.Their music is both a tribute to the heritage of these diverse regions and a bold exploration of their modern relevance, offering audiences a mesmerising experience that transcends borders, time, and genre.

It's a blend of tradition and innovation, rooted in jazz yet unbound by convention.Kourosh Kanani and Matt Davies made their debut release as a duo earlier this year with their take on a Kurdish lullaby Lay Laye featuring Amena, a multi-lingual singer and composer from Cairo, Egypt.

A deeply evocative voice rooted in the traditions of the great Egyptian vocalists.
