Wednesday 11th September | 7pm | £8 / £6 safehouse members + concs

Safehouse Collective bring you a night of improvised music from a cohort of inter generational boss players!

Veteran drummer Eddie Prévost was a founding member of AMM in the mid-1960s and has continued on a long journey exploring improvised music since then. Here he is joined by Swiss trumpeter Silvan Schmid and UK bassist Tom Wheatley.

Eddie Prévost

Eddie Prévost began his life in music as a jazz drummer. A recurring interest in this form has been maintained, although always with an experimental ethos. Along the way he has maintained his fifty-year plus experimental credentials with AMM and numerous other improvisation projects, including his now twenty-year long weekly workshop. But drumming has generally been backgrounded to his experimental percussion work.

“Prévost’s free drumming flows superbly making use of his formidable technique. It’s as though there has never been an Elvin Jones or Max Roach.” – Melody Maker

Tom Wheatley

Tom Wheatley is an artist and musician based in London. His work is patterns, rhythms and cycles, at an interface of physical and digital zones. Recently, his music has been documented on video and record.

His main collaborations are ТЕПЛОТА with Grundik Kasyansky, Cast-On with Ilana Blumberg, and various lineups & outputs with Daniel Blumberg, often including Billy Steiger, Ute Kanngiesser and Jim White.
