The Alex Hitchcock Quintet features some of the most exciting and distinctive rising stars from London’s vibrant jazz scene. 2016 performances included sold-out shows at the London Jazz Festival and New Generation Jazz at The Verdict, Brighton.
Taking its compositional cue from an Anglo-American range of influences including Kneebody, Ambrose Akinmusire, and Jasper Hoiby, the group showcases a spirit of openness and interaction grounded in its members’ close musical relationships, while blurring the boundary between written and improvised music.
