Durham Jazz Festival: Zoe Gilby & Andy Champion

October 25 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Winner of Parliamentary Jazz Awards Jazz Vocalist Of The Year 2019,

Zoë has teamed up with her husband, the innovative and powerful double bassist Andy Champion for a voice and double bass duo.

This exceptional pairing creates an electrifying soundscape with beautifully integrated music, breathing fresh life into the familiar as well as heading off to the unchartered.

The well-honed duo know each other by heart. Their approach is bold, hypnotic and mesmerising, interacting and infiltrating one another’s sound.

Removing the boundaries, exploring space and time with just voice and double bass.

Inspired by the legendary Sheila Jordan, this exciting project has been taking audiences by storm throughout the UK and Europe and highlights her ingenuity in interpreting a lyric.
