ALEX CURTIS QUARTET

"Highly original group playing their own music and arrangements."

Tonight, Alex presents his quartet and they will be performing original music and arrangements from their forthcoming album, ''Pattern, Habits and Loops.'' Drawing on a whole range of influences, the band demonstrates outstanding musicianship and very strong collective writing skills (3 of the quartet are established composers.) This will be an exciting and hugely enjoyable gig. 

Superb Quartet featuring Alex Curtis (Piano,) Dave Preston (Guitar,) Dave O'Brien (Bass,) and Jaime Murray (Drums). Expect highly original arrangements/compositions, heavy grooves and some outstanding group interaction.

Alex Curtis has a multifaceted career as a pianist, composer, arranger and educator. He has worked in many different genres which stems from his interest in all styles of music which began at an early age. A skilled composer and arranger, Alex has worked with several top vocalists including Beth Hirsch (Air), Katina Kangaris and Ana Silvera. In 2011, Alex collaborated with Ana for a ground breaking sellout series of concerts at the Roundhouse in London. For this, he arranged Ana's songs for choir, small band and string quartet to much critical acclaim.
