SUMMARY:Burrough Jazz Presents The Edison Herbert Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Edison Herbert Quartet at Burrough Jazz – A night of world-class jazz\, soulful guitar and swinging surprises. Don’t miss it!\n\n\n\n“Music has always been the heartbeat of my life. My journey began with classical piano at the Yorkshire College of Music\, but everything changed when I first heard George Benson’s In Flight album. That moment sparked a deep passion for the guitar\, an instrument that would become my voice. \nRecently\, I released my third album\, All I Need\, a collection that’s vibrant\, captivating\, and profoundly personal. Each melody is a reflection of my heart\, and I’m thrilled to finally share this music with you. \nMy path as a guitarist has been one of emotion and melody\, where every note carries a piece of my soul. I was fortunate to receive a scholarship to study jazz at The Guildhall School of Music\, a pivotal experience that opened doors to incredible musical adventures. From performing in a variety of settings to serving as the musical director for the West End show Unforgettable\, and later playing in the acclaimed Get Up Stand Up\, my career has been a series of extraordinary moments. \nIn 2016\, I had the honour of participating in the Sky Arts series Guitar Star\, a highlight of my journey. During the show\, I performed one of my original compositions\, and the legendary George Benson offered me unforgettable praise: “I really enjoyed your playing. You’re one of the few cats who can make that thing sound so good.” \nAs I continue to refine my craft\, I look forward to sharing every step of this journey with you. The road ahead is full of promise\, and I can’t wait to see where the music takes us” \nEdison Herbert \n\nRead More
