GLG - Greg Lloyd Group unplugged live video recording.

About this event

The GLG - Greg Lloyd Group - have just completed their long awaited 2nd album. Which is due to be released in June 2018. Come get a rare glimpse of a very special band and the new music which is starting to make new waves abroad.

This will be a very special intimate performance as it will be recorded for video to be released. The CSM recording studio can only hold a small number of people so make sure to book early to avoid disappointment.

The music from the GLG is original instrumental World, Jazz, Blues, Classical, Rock and Funk all mixed up into a piano trio cocktail inspired by the music of Avishai Cohen, Esbjorn Svensson Trio (EST), Pat Metheny Group and by Greg's time working on the film 'El Gusto' with Damon Albarn (Blur, Gorillaz), an award-winning film about the lost 'Chaabi' music of Northern Africa.

The GLG debut CD 'Long Way Home' has received rave reviews and radio play here and abroad, including Japan and Australia where the group is starting to make new waves.
