Adam Dyer Quintet

Pianist Adam Dyer makes his debut at The Crypt, bringing with him both new music from his latest album Transformations and a new band member in the form of 2024 BBC Young Jazz Musician of the Year finalist, Klara Devlin.Completing the line up are award-winning saxophonist Duncan Eagles, multi-talented drummer Eric Ford and superb bassist Misha Mullov-Abbado.From reflective ECM influences, such as Kenny Wheeler and Jan Garbarek, to the groove of Ramsey Lewis and Keith Jarrett, there is something here for everybody; first and foremost, great group dynamics, and expressive melodic compositions."An elegant album full of melodic richness, driven by Adam Dyer's wide-ranging imagination as a leading composer on the British jazz scene.
