Tomorrow's Warriors' alumnus and part of all-female septet, Nerija, Rosie Turton presents her first release as a Quintet on the Jazz re:freshed label. As part of the 5ive's series, the tracks blend the sound of trombone, violin and electronics over a bed of interlocking grooves and soundscapes from the rhythm section and explore the sounds of jazz, hip-hop and Indian classical music among other influences
"London's jazz scene has been blooming in 2018 and trombonist Rosie Turton is one to carry the momentum forward. Following her Nerija bandmate Nubya Garcia, Turton [releases] her debut EP in January [2019] on the formative Jazz re:freshed label. Combining classical Indian violin with folk rhythms and straight ahead jazz, Turton is a pensive flip to the maximalist sound of her contemporaries." ~The Guardian 28.12.18
