Opening the first ever Jazz Funk Soul Festival at The Vault Arts Centre is the incredible Matt Carmichael Band!
Heralded by BBC Music Magazine as ‘a distinctive new voice in a crowded scene’, saxophonist and composer Matt Carmichael continues to move from strength to strength and grow his reach globally with his powerfully emotive blend of Jazz and Folk music.
Matt Carmichael, a talented tenor saxophonist hailing from the burgeoning Scottish jazz scene, has made his mark with his debut album on Edition Records. With a captivating blend of lyrical jazz and lilting folk melodies, ‘Marram’ showcases Matt’s immense musical talent alongside award-winning fiddle player Charlie Stewart, as well as his long-time collaborators Fergus McCreadie, Ali Watson, and Tom Potter. This lively and energetic album solidifies Matt’s position as one of Scotland’s leading young performers!
