Kit Downes

Having met in their first year at the Royal Academy of Music, The Kit Downes Trio have been playing together since 2005. Their music walks the fine line between improvisation and composition through an eclectic mix of influences.

The band, featuring Calum Gourlay (Tommy Smith, Martin Speake, Tom Cawley) on bass and James Maddren (Marc Copland, Stan Sulzmann, Gwilym Simcock) on drums, has always been interested in making its music accessible, whilst not sacrificing any of its intellect - and doing so through new and original music.

"a breathtaking improviser, and weaver of magical piano soundscapes, Kit Downes is world class" - Helen Mayhew, Jazz FM
