Fire Music This Friday - Do Not Miss This

Plan B and Bo'Weavil Recordings presents: Alan Wilkinson, John Edwards and Steve Noble + Tom James Scott FRIDAY 19 OCTOBER, WHITECHAPEL GALLERY, LONDON E1

The nights are drawing in, so gather round and get in the warm for the third in Plan B's Secret Landscapes series at the Whitechapel Gallery: this month, delicate autumnal improv followed by searing fire music from three UK free jazz legends.

In association with Bo' Weavil Recordings, Plan B is proud to present:

Alan Wilkinson, John Edwards and Steve Noble
Scorching free jazz from three heavyweights of the UK Improv scene. Plan B Magazine said of recent Bo' Weavil release Obliquity, "[it > has enough energy to power a decent sized town for a month. Saxophonist Alan Wilkinson's clearly been digging his old Albert Ayler albums, letting rip with insane shrieks and strangled cries that don't so much carry a tune as plug right in to the raging essence of uninhibited, animal self-expression. But, raw and ragged as it is, there's a world of telepathic, lightning-quick interplay at work here, too. Bassist John Edwards and drummer Steve Noble follow the ebb and flow of Wilkinson's outpourings, turning up the heat at the flick of a switch to create great boiling maelstroms of pure noise mayhem and dropping out at just the right moments into stretches of headlong, urgent free-swing. It's jazz alright, but you won't hear it on Parkinson."

Tom James Scott
Delicate, lambent solo acoustic guitar from Tom James Scott, whose debut album Red Deer is out this autumn on Bo' Weavil Recordings. A mainstay of the improvising collective CYRK and sometimes seen pounding a Casio in chaos-pop noise duo Clunes, Scott's solo string work is unashamedly beautiful, but with an instinct for space, silence and odd, eerie sonic detail that unnerves like nature.

With DJ support from Bo' Weavil Recordings and Dr Wommm.
