Sam Braysher Quartet featuring Linus Eppinger
Cool-toned London saxophonist Sam Braysher returns to Peggy's Skylight, joining forces with rising star Amsterdam-based guitarist Linus Eppinger. With backing from a top UK rhythm section, this classy, feel-good quartet interprets American Songbook standards, pre-war swing numbers and Blue Note classics.
"I can't think of another alto saxophonist with a sound quite like Sam Braysher's" **** Dave Gelly, The Observer
"the warm-toned young London saxophonist Sam Braysher is a prize-winning investigator of the early recordings and published music of Jerome Kern, Nat King Cole, Duke Ellington and many others, and imagines a new jazz closely attuned to an old world." John Fordham, The Guardian
"Braysher's cool, modernist twist on old songs is just superb" Simon Adams, Jazz Journal
London-based alto saxophonist Sam Braysher has received widespread acclaim for the two albums released under his own name, both of which feature renowned international collaborators. Golden Earrings, with American pianist Michael Kanan, was described as "delightful and surprising" by Dave Gelly in the Observer, while his recent trio album with Jorge Rossy (Brad Mehldau Trio) and Tom Farmer, was praised in Jazzwise as "a triumph of intelligence and sentiment".
Braysher and Linus Eppinger became friends as members of REBOP, a collaborative pan-European quintet, which toured the UK, Spain and Germany. Currently based in Amsterdam, the young German guitarist is winning plaudits for his bluesy swagger and a playing style influenced by Wes Montgomery, George Benson and Peter Bernstein. His recent debut album, Leaning In, was called "a classy and timeless outing" by Simon Adams of Jazz Journal.
