The Universal Rhythm Ensemble is an exciting new group helmed by four young musicians active on the London jazz scene: Together, they form a sharp quartet playing rhythmic and colourful compositions that reach far inside and outside of the jazz cannon. Their sound has a groove-laden and gathered feel, late night music for late night people, an eclectic and warming melting pot of Afro-Latin rhythms; jazz; fusion; funk; even Detroit techno and broken beat interpolations.
"Squabble" with a funky jazz groove, influenced by the soul jazz greats of the 1960's and 70's, infused with infectious rhythms, hooks and melodies. A six piece band comprising Hammond organ, sax/trumpet, guitar, bass, drums and percussion. Organ‑led soul‑jazz session and a soulful jazz‑funk set — all with vinyl interludes, two live sets in the afternoon, a welcoming social vibe, food and a heated garden for relaxed listening or dancing.
