Miguel Gorodi Quintet

 


The Miguel Gorodi Quintet features some of the most distinctive voices on the UK jazz scene. With a growing repertoire of originals by Gorodi and jazz compositions by Thelonious Monk, John Coltrane, Andrew Hill, Woody Shaw, Dizzy Gillespie & Eric Dolphy, their live performances pack a punch and allow space for each musician to excel.

Featuring Nathaniel Facey on Saxophone, Alcyona Mick on Piano, Calum Gourlay on Bass & James Maddren on drums, the band recently played to a sold-out crowd at London’s Vortex and plan to tour the UK and Europe in 2025.

Signed to Ubuntu Music, Gorodi has been a sideman and soloist at sessions throughout Europe including, Scandinavia and Russia. As an in-demand trumpeter, his versatility has seen him work across many styles of music with projects and musicians such as Ian Shaw, Jamie Callum, BBC Big Band, Nikki Iles Jazz Orchestra, Barry Green Sextet, SEED Ensemble, Yazz Ahmed, Femi Temowo, Kansas Smitty’s House Band, London City Big Band, Hackney Colliery Band, The Ticklers, Riot Jazz and many others.

Nathaniel Facey, one of the UK’s most impressive saxophonists, has worked with Jack DeJohnette and Jason Moran, and is a founding member of the multi-award-winning group Empirical.

Described by MOJO as 'an unusual powerhouse of a talent', Alcyona Mick is a London-based pianist and composer, recently nominated for a Parliamentary Jazz Instrumentalist award and has performed internationally for many years. As well as co-leading a duo with saxophonist Tori Freestone, Alcyona currently works with a wide array of artists and bands including the London Jazz Orchestra, Natacha Atlas, Randolph Matthews, Brigitte Beraha Lucid Dreamers, Josephine Davies, Perfect Stranger, the Casimir Connection, Kate Shortt, Paul Clarvis/Stuart Hall trio, Zeroclassikal and many others.

London-based double bassist and composer Calum Gourlay is known for his deep warm tone and has become a mainstay on the London jazz scene while performing with the Kit Downes Trio, The Tommy Smith Group, Will Vinson, The Scottish National Jazz Orchestra featuring Joe Lovano and John Scofield. Calum also works with Kurt Elling, Martin Speake, Martin Kershaw and Sheila Jordan.

Currently one of Europe’s first-call drummers, James Maddren has shared the stage with many artists and ensembles including Gwilym Simcock, Kit Downes Trio, Jacob Collier, Marc Copland/Stan Sulzmann Quartet, The Mark McKnight Organ Quartet featuring Seamus Blake.
