With three album releases, two national tours, and two awards from Help Musicians, Aspyrian are fast gaining a reputation as one of the most ambitious new acts on the UK jazz scene.
Drawing inspiration from contemporary jazz artists as well as an eclectic mix of soulful songwriters and alternative bands, the London-based trio have crafted a sound that is both captivating and distinctive – blending intricate composition with rich improvisation and immersive textures. The band features:
Robin Porter – Saxophones & Effects
Jack Gillen – Guitar & Effects
Matt Parkinson – Drums
Following the success of their acclaimed 2024 release ‘to explore (vol. 2)’ – which garnered thousands of streams and placements on prominent jazz playlists – Aspyrian recently unveiled their latest album, ‘Live at The Jazz Glad Festival’. Capturing the trio in full flight, the recording has been praised by UK Jazz News as “a showcase of Aspyrian’s dynamism as a unit, leaning into the band’s distinct chemistry and improvisational prowess.”
Aspyrian will be playing a mixture of these songs – now so familiar to the band to allow for expansive improvisations and risk-taking – as well as new tunes, which further deepen the ensemble’s original voice.
