About the artist

Bill Bruford's Earthworks

Bill Bruford's Earthworks are not your average jazz fusion band. Led by the legendary drummer and composer Bill Bruford, this group brings a fresh and innovative approach to the genre. With roots in both traditional jazz and progressive rock, Earthworks create a sound that is both complex and accessible. Bruford, known for his work with bands like Yes and King Crimson, brings his years of experience and expertise to Earthworks, resulting in a band that is tight and precise, yet also full of playfulness and experimentation. The group's music is a blend of intricate rhythms, melodic lines, and unexpected shifts in dynamics, creating a sonic landscape that is at once engaging and thought-provoking. But what sets Earthworks apart from other jazz fusion bands is their ability to inject a sense of humour and fun into their music. Bruford's quirky personality shines through in his compositions, with playful titles like "Pilgrimage of the Last Funk" and "Gentle Persuasion" giving listeners a taste of the band's lighthearted approach to their craft. With a lineup that includes some of the best musicians in the industry, including saxophonist and flautist Theo Travis and pianist Gwilym Simcock, Earthworks are a force to be reckoned with on the jazz scene. Their live performances are energetic and captivating, drawing audiences in with their technical prowess and infectious energy. In a world where jazz fusion can sometimes feel stale and predictable, Bill Bruford's Earthworks are a breath of fresh air. With their unique blend of talent, humour, and innovation, this band continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in the world of jazz music.
