Trish Clowes - Trish Clowes - A View with a Room [CD]
Barcode: 186980000947

A
View with a Room is the fourth release by saxophonist and composer Trish
Clowes and her acclaimed band My Iris, an intense and thrilling quartet that
represents the front rank of the contemporary UK jazz scene. Lauded for her
imaginative approach to improvisation and composition, Clowes provides
her†bandmates†Ross Stanley†(piano/Hammond organ),†Chris
Montague†(guitar) and†James Maddren†(drums) with a unique
platform for individual expression, delivering driving grooves and lingering
melodic lines, seamlessly morphing between earthy restlessness and futuristic
dreamscapes.†

Most of the repertoire came together during the pandemic for various livestream
events, Clowes writing a new tune for each precious playing opportunity. Many
of the tracks make direct reference to issues created and exacerbated by the
global pandemic, commenting on personal loss and creativity as solace, the
climate crisis, and the ever-growing migrant crisis. The title track suggests a
surreal, and yet strangely relatable concept, forced upon much of the world
during these deeply isolating times. "The Ness" is inspired by sounds
and images from a Scottish coastline by filmmaker / collaborator Rose Hendry.
Amber" is for Amber Bauer, CEO of Donate4Refugees (a charity Clowes is an
ambassador for), reflecting her†energy and dynamism.†Ayana" is
dedicated to Ayana Elizabeth Johnson, an inspiring†writer, marine
biologist and policy expert, who speaks clearly and positively on the issues of
climate change. Creative music for and of our times.
