Dem Ones

Binker and Moses are tenor saxophonist Binker Golding and drummer Moses Boyd - two of the most exciting young jazz musicians on the thriving London jazz scene. Originally meeting through double bassist/educator Gary Crosby's Tomorrow's Warriors jazz development program, they have played together in various large and small format groups including recording and touring extensively as members of Zara McFarlane's band. 2015's Dem Ones marked their debut recording as a duo, and has it's roots in experiments between soundchecks and gigs while on the road with McFarlane. Over time these initial ideas and jams became templates for improvisation, and with their echoes of late period John Coltrane and Charles Lloyd, are as listenable and memorable as they are full of invention, passion and surprise. All the tracks were performed in the live room at Mark Ronson's Zelig Studio and recorded direct to Gearbox's vintage Studer 1/4" tape machine.
