Grammy winner Tim Garland and Barclaycard Mercury nominated pianist Gwilym Simcock are two of the most outstanding composers of our time in both jazz and classical genres and are regarded as among the very best in the world on their respective instruments. Celebrating their signing to the prestigious German label ACT, the hugely successful Lighthouse are now back with their original personnel.
The newly invigorated trio punch deep into exciting groovebased tunes inspired by an eclectic mix of Chick Corea, Bill Bruford, Yellowjackets, John Coltrane, Samuel Barber and DJ Carl Cox. With Asaf Sirkis playing a custom built percussion set of frame drums, bass Udu, Hang drum and more, Lighthouse exude a very special energy and excitement in performance.
