“This group display an enviable poise and togetherness”, – The Telegraph UK

In 2022, Kevin Brady and his Electric Quartet embarked on a bold new musical journey, sparked by a collaboration that would transform their artistic direction. With the expressive tenor saxophone of Seamus Blake, the atmospheric tones of Bill Carrothers on Fender Rhodes, and the steady presence of longtime bassist Dave Redmond, the group crafted a sound that seamlessly blends intricate jazz improvisation with emotional depth. Their music strikes a rare balance, being rooted in jazz tradition yet boldly contemporary, pushing the genre into fresh territory. Their most recent studio album, Plan B, released on Ubuntu Records, was named one of the Jazz Albums of the Year by the prestigious U.S. publication DownBeat.

Just when you think the quartet might be content to linger in introspection, they deliver something unexpected: a hard-swinging, groove-laden track that reminds listeners of the genre’s vibrant roots. The Kevin Brady Electric Quartet opens up an exciting new chapter for both its members and their audience.
