The quartet formed in 2010 to explores the possibilities and challenges afforded by the absence of a harmony instrument with compositions drawing on Johnny’s long-standing interest in the piano-less groups of Sonny Rollins and Joe Henderson, through to those of John Zorn and Chris Speed. Together with Mark Hanslip (Outhouse, Loop Collective), Graham South (Beats & Pieces Big Band) and Seth Bennett (IDST), their music currently exists within the more adventurous side of Jazz, leaning more towards the approach of Ornette Coleman, Henry Threadgill and Joe Harriott, whilst building on their previous explorations into Middle Eastern approaches to improvisation.
