Snazzback 'Within & Without' UK Tour......hybrid jazz & bass music straight out of Bristol
Snazzback’s seven-sided dance dynamism folds together UK jazz and broken beats with dub flourishes. Their hybrid sound has captured imaginations as far and wide as Glastonbury Festival, London's legendary Ronnie Scott’s Club and beyond.??This tour sees the collective delve deeper into their love of UK dance music. They take threads from the driving dubstep sounds of DMZ and breaks inspired by the sounds of Source Direct and explore them with a joyous freedom that leans more on the likes of Miles Davis and the late Pharaoh Sanders.
Their new music explores themes of conflict, both within and without. Here's what some people have said about them.
*“An explosive sense of energy...buzzing and fizzing with fresh ideas”* - Clash Magazine
*“SNAZZBACK... love that band - a seven piece collective from Bristol. Really sick track that"* - Jamz Supernova (BBC 6 Music)??
Support comes from Asher Freeman, a young saxophonist and composer who has lit up the Leeds jazz scene since he moved to the city to study music at Leeds Conservatoire. Now a graduate, he can be found spitting tenor sax fire in various bands such Fir, Oracle and Nova Sol. This latest project combines jazz, rock and rare groove influences with uptempo beats and timeless melodies to create a kaleidoscopic new fusion sound.
