£21.99 – 1xLP, Limited Edition Marbled Teal Vinyl

This album more than confirms the trio’s early promise and elevates them to a unique location in the modern jazz landscape.

Joe Webb is an extraordinarily gifted pianist and improviser who, taking inspiration from the flavour of 90’s Brit-pop and adding references to his Welsh cultural roots, seamlessly blends traditional jazz with contemporary flair. His innovative approach breathes new life into classic jazz idioms, creating a sound that is both familiar and refreshingly original.

The Joe Webb Trio’s ability to amalgamate the old and the new has garnered them a deserved reputation for pushing the boundaries of jazz while respecting its rich heritage. ‘Hamstrings & Hurricanes’ continues this bold exploration. The album is a continuous soundscape, weaving together live elements, absorbing trio improvisations, and spontaneous moments of creativity.
