Eddie Prévost / Ray Russell / Nathan Moore (trio)

About

Ray Russell / electric guitar Nathan Moore (NO Moore) / electric guitar Eddie Prévost / drums Excited to host the barnstorming trio of Eddie Prévost, Ray Russell and Nathan Moore following the release of 2026's excellent Stacked album on Cuneiform Records. "There are improvisation records that sound like conversations, others that resemble arguments, and a few that feel like three people discovering a previously unknown species while trying not to scare it away. "Stacked" belongs somewhere in that last category. On paper, the combination is already intriguing. Nathan Moore, a guitarist whose work draws equally from free improvisation, jazz, rock, electronics, and contemporary composition, joins two towering figures of British exploratory music: drummer Eddie Prévost and guitarist Ray Russell. Between them lies a remarkable amount of musical history. Prévost helped establish free improvisation as a radical practice through the legendary ensemble AMM, while Russell spent decades moving between jazz, rock, film scores, television soundtracks, and avant-garde experimentation, accumulating enough stylistic passports to fill several lifetimes. Moore enters this meeting not as a disciple but as an equal participant, bringing a contemporary sensibility sharpened through years within London's fertile improvising scene.... In a world increasingly governed by algorithms eager to predict our next move, there is something quietly radical about listening to artists who genuinely do not know what will happen next. "Stacked" captures that uncertainty not as a problem to be solved, but as a source of possibility. The music breathes because nobody is trying to control it. And, as it turns out, that remains one of the oldest and most reliable forms of magic." chaindlk.com A founder-member of AMM (1965-2022) “ [Eddie Prévost’s] is one of the greatest metallurgists that music has produced. […] sparks delicately arcing through the air, of slow lava ingesting its surroundings, of the shifting grind of tectonic plates across each other, of the rustle and glint of a firebird darting between shadows, and of ore smashing into the surface of the earth; but perhaps this language is overwrought: all that needs to be remarked upon is Prévost's industry, his diligence.” Nathan Moore — liner note to AMM’s ‘Indúsria’ But beyond this work Prévost has also maintained a relationship with the jazz drum-kit.
