removing the mouthpiece to elicit a windy howl, using her left hand as a mute in the bell of the horn and revelling in restless possibilities.’

Charlotte’s unique approach to trumpet playing and passion for improvised/experimental/jazz music has led her to performing regularly across the UK and internationally. Her own latest project explores the blurring of lines between her compositions and improvisation. Charlotte will be performing and recording this new material in November 2018 alongside Alex Ward on guitar, Ashley John Long on double bass and Ben Handysides on drums. Her collaboration with Alex Ward extends to his own Item Series projects, performing regularly alongside Bassist Otto Willberg and Drummer Andrew Lisle in Item 4 and Item 10.
This September 2018, Charlotte played trumpet/flugelhorn as part of the Sheffield-based, Discus Music’s new Anthropology album, headed by Martin Archer, also featuring Chris Sharkey, Corey Mwamba, Dave Sturt, Pat Thomas and Peter Fairclough. Charlotte is also part of Martin Archer’s Downtown & Uptown Quintet, which will be recording in 2019, also including Dave Kane, Graham Clark and Laura Cole.
Andrew Lisle
Andrew Lisle is a drummer from Northumberland, UK, currently based in London. In 2008 he began studying Jazz at Leeds College of Music and soon discovered a passion and talent for free improvisation. It was during his time at LCoM that he co-founded the band Shatner’s Bassoon with five like-minded musicians (and fellow graduates) Johnny Richards, Michael Bardon, Oliver Dover, Craig Scott and Joost Hendrickx. To date the band have recorded two studio albums (receiving wide-spread critical acclaim) and have toured the UK extensively.
After graduating in 2011 he moved to Lisbon, Portugal where he had the opportunity to further develop his musicianship. He spent much of his time at the Clean Feed Records’ base of operations Trem Azul playing with the city’s veteran improvisers including Rodrigo Pinheiro (Red Trio), Hernani Faustino (Red Trio), Rodrigo Amado and Luis Lopes among others.
Since moving to London in 2013 his virtuosity and musicality has established him as a sought-after drummer on the Jazz and improvised music scene, performing and recording with some of the most innovative musicians in the UK and beyond. These include Colin Webster, John Edwards, John Dikeman, Alex Ward, Dirk Serries, Alan Wilkinson, Matthew Bourne, Rachel Musson and Mark Sanders.
On-going projects to date include: Orbits, Kodian trio, Colin Webster/Andrew Lisle, Ales Ward Item 10, Alex Ward Item 4, Dikeman/Lisle/Serries/Webster to name a few.
