David Preston / Robin Mullarkey / Gary Husband - T R I O

About

A rare one-off performance & first meeting as a trio between guitarist David Preston , bassist Robin Mullarkey and drummer Gary Husband. David Preston has been described by the Guardian as “Virtuosic” and Time Out as “A superb modern jazz guitarist”. A finalist at the Montreux International Guitar competition, he released his 2-part debut album ‘Purple / Black’ on Whirlwind Recordings in 2023/24. Robin Mullarkey is known for his involvement with the UK broken beat movement, producing two ground-breaking LPs fusing his academic jazz background with the contemporary dance aesthetic in the band Brotherly. He has recently been touring with Jacob Collier & Donny McCaslin. Gary Husband is one of a rare breed of musicians in that his expression is divided equally in his capacity as a drummer, pianist and keyboardist of international repute. For close to four decades, Gary has worked alongside a vast and eclectic range of celebrated musicians including John McLaughlin, Allan Holdsworth, Jeff Beck, Jack Bruce, Gary Moore & many others. The trio will perform a unique repertoire of originals tailored for the occasion, choice interpretations of favourite classics and spontaneous improvisations - truly not to be missed.
