The big success story of 2007 and winner of the BBC Jazz Award for Album Of The Year returns with their much anticipated second release. "Post-jazz", "punk-jazz", "call-it-what-you-like-jazz", one thing's for sure, today's generation of mavericks are informed by jazz, but channel the energy of rock and the surging dynamics of dance music to create a new sound, and stretch the envelope further. At the vanguard of this new scene is The Neil Cowley Trio, whose 2006 debut 'Displaced' was released to huge critical acclaim from across the musical spectrum. This follow up album features Cowley's long-time collaborators Richard Sadler on bass and Evan Jenkins on drums. As the title suggests it is marked with energy, adrenalin and wit; an album of massive dynamic range and contrasts. Yet Cowley wears the "post jazz" label lightly. Neil expresses a wide gamut of emotions through his music, so there is often a sensitivity and romanticism to his compositions. Tracks: His Nibs / Dinosaur Die / Scaredy Cat / Ginger Sheep / Clumsy Couple / Captain Backfire / Well / We Are Here to Make Plastic / Synaesthesia Traffic / Streets Paved With Half Baguettes Pt 2.
