Will Barnes Quartet

In Concert: Outside the Light

 – St Mary’s Church

Experience an absorbing evening of sophisticated modern jazz, elevated by the atmospheric acoustic and Georgian Gothic setting of St Mary’s Church in Hay-on-Wye.

Led by guitarist and composer Will Barnes, the quartet features pianist Jack Gonsalez, bassist Aidan Thorne and drummer James Batten – an ensemble recognised for its tight chemistry and compelling live performances. Their sound pays homage to jazz greats such as Wes Montgomery, Pat Metheny and Oscar Peterson, while forging a distinct voice of their own. Outside the Light is their second album.

Price: £20.00
