About

Aidan Thorne & Jason Ball

Saturday 5 September, 1pm

Ocean Room, National Waterfront Museum

Jason and Aidan have collaborated in a variety of musical settings for more than 15 years, and last year they released their first joint album, Expanding upon Tradition: Ehangu’r Traddodiad, on Cambrian Records.

In this unmissable concert they’ll be performing their music, which reimagines Welsh folk melodies through a blend of improvisation, jazz, and minimalism, all set within an atmospheric, ambient sound world.

“Aidan Thorne’s cascading notes on the bass were enough to give you pause, make you hold your breath.”

“A versatile and imaginative soloist with a contemporary jazz guitar style that is very much his own.” Ian Mann
