Paul Jarret & Jim Black Live in Vienna, France

Paul Jarret is one of the most innovative and exciting young guitarists on the European jazz circuit. Raised on the indie rock of the late Twentieth Century, he aims to deconstruct these influences within the jazz language. In 2019, when he won the French Adami Jazz Talent award, he got the opportunity to really flex his creative muscles through a commission to write music for his "drummer hero," Jim Black. Black is an American drummer extraordinaire who has made a name for himself in New York jazz through post-rock-influenced playing, rhythmic shifts and a texture-led style alongside the likes of saxophonist Tim Berne and trumpeter Dave Douglas.
