TicketsSexmob has exploded all preconceived notions of what jazz band can be. On 2023 release The Hard Way, the music skews decisively electronic, as producer Scotty Hard’s beats and soundscapes provide slide trumpeter and founder Steven Bernstein, saxophonist Briggan Krauss, bassist Tony Scherr and acoustic/electric drummer Kenny Wollesen all the stimulus they need for further composition and fearless reinvention.
Support from Sam Eastmond (trumpet), Fergus Quill (bass), and Noam Solomons-Wise (drums).
Sam Eastmond is an improvising trumpeter and composer known for his expansive large ensemble projects which span vast and eclectic swathes of stylistic inspiration. Bassist Fergus Quill is a composer, improvisor and bandleader. Noam Solomons-Wise is a drummer studying at Royal Academy of Music.
