The Gaz Hughes Trio
Introducing Beboptical Illusion, the highly anticipated new album from jazz musician Gaz Hughes. This marks his third studio release, featuring seven original compositions and a ballad by Duke Ellington. The album draws inspiration from a diverse range of genres including Bebop, Latin, New Orleans, Avant-guard and Modal influences, culminating in a unique and memorable sound.
Featuring Gaz Hughes on drums, Andrzej Baranek on piano and Ed Harrison on double bass, the trio have been described as “Old school jazz for the 21st Century”.
This release marks a turning point for Gaz Hughes, as it is the first time he has recorded his own compositions, a new direction he will be pursuing moving forward, taking inspiration from Oscar Wilde’s words “Be yourself because everyone else is taken”.
