Glasshopper welcome being undefined. However, their band leader and Glaswegian saxophonist would label their music simply as “Jazz”. The London based trio have gained wide critical acclaim for their captivating and euphoric live performances, and especially with their latest 2024 post punk/indie jazz release “I’m Not Telling You Anything”.

Although only wee, this three-piece are fearless in challenging perceptions of what jazz is and draw audiences into moments pure of sonic bliss to high octane rock-outs. The bass-less line up builds on influences from Celtic folk to global grooves and across jazz, adding brasher beats and tones from indie and rock. Seldom settling, always searching.

“Glasshopper’s second bursts with emotional intensity....this intersecting sax/guitar/drums trio re-prove their mettle as wordless storytellers with laser focus.” ★★★★ MOJO Magazine
