Tim Garland Lighthouse Trio
20th Anniversary Tour
Experimental. Formidable. Twenty years of stunning interplay.
2024 sees the 20th anniversary of Tim Garland Lighthouse Trio; featuring pianist Gwilym Simcock and drummer / percussionist Asaf Sirkis. To celebrate, the truly unique and formidable band play The Glasshouse in November.
Garland and the much-praised Simcock share a similar musical approach informed by fusion, folk, and classical forms, while the formidable and adaptable Sirkis masterfully employs a bespoke kit of middle eastern frame drums perfect for the setting.
The upcoming concert features works from a project entitled ‘Moment Of Departure’ created by Turkish painter and printmaker Esra Kizir Gokcen to complement new music, released on a new album recorded with the Britten Sinfonia and violin virtuoso Thomas Gould.
The trio’s three albums (If the Sea Replied, Libra and Lighthouse) capture their stunning agility and lyrical sensibility, with both Garland, whose association with Chick Corea made his name widespread, and the world-renowned Simcock (Pat Metheny Band) sharing compositional input.
