Harben Kay
Witness the finale of Harben Kay's UK tour, one of the UK's most creative and virtuosic jazz artists, here at Peggy's Skylight. '...a beautiful poise and assurance, that radiates from every groove' **** Chris Searle, Morning Star
"A formidable saxophonist and composer… Quite simply, outstanding!" – Nick Lea, Jazz Views
Award-winning tenor saxophonist Harben Kay is quickly becoming renowned as one of the UK's most creative and virtuosic jazz artists, with two critically acclaimed albums, four UK tours and performances at the UK's most esteemed jazz venues such as Ronnie Scott's, The Royal Albert Hall and The Vortex.
Their latest album, Golden Sands (2022), was released on Kay's own label, Sulis Records, in October 2022. The album received high praise from the jazz media, showcasing original compositions that are reflective of Kay's experiences in their homeland of Scotland, and their time spent living in London and New York City.
Kay's well-received debut album, Moon Palace (Ubuntu 2018), followed their Peter Whittingham Jazz Award win in 2017, which also funded the project. Their third album as a leader, The World I Live In, is coming out on 3rd October 2025.
In addition to being an avid composer, Kay is a prolific and self-managing performer, having booked four of their own tours in the UK with support from Help Musicians, Creative Scotland and Arts Council England. Last year they took part in Serious's prestigious Take Five programme. They have also featured in a wide variety of other bands and alongside some of the UK's finest jazz talents, including Scottish National Jazz Orchestra, Zoe Rahman, Yazz Ahmed, Sean Gibbs and Seonaid Aitken
"Kay and their impressive trio have created a nostalgic jazz album that highlights the ensemble's chemistry beautifully, through exciting melodies and captivating musicality." – Isabel Marquez, Jazz in Europe
Line up:
Harben Kay – tenor saxophone & alto flute
Peter Johnstone – piano
Calum Gourlay – double bass
