ONLINE EDITION
MORGAN WALLACE
Morgan Wallace on tenor saxophone presented a set of original music performed by her band featuring Luke Bacchus on piano, a new name to me and one to follow. Cassius Cobbson on drums, an important musician in the current Young Tomorrow´s Warriors ranks and Kielan Sheard on bass, a finalist in this year´s BBC Young Jazz Musician of the year.
Morgan, originally from South London, grew up in Devon and took up Clarinet at 8 years old, moving on to the saxophone at 14. Currently, she is studying at Trinity Laban Conservatoire and has developed her language as part of Tomorrow´s Warriors programme under the mentorship of Binker Golding, Alex Davis and others.
A talented composer and instrumentalist, she draws her influences from saxophonists Ornette Coleman and Wayne Short but musicians like Brad Mehldau, Jeff Buckley or Miles Davis are also constant sources of inspiration.
