||GOYA||
GOYA is a cinematic jazz band that formed in late 2019 in Bristol, UK. The project fuses genres and a multitude of influences to create an immersive and epic experience for the listener. It was founded by pianist Victoria Blake-Dobell and drummer Stan Glendinning and, shortly after its conception, the project expanded to incorporate new additions from James Storm Otieno on saxophone, Ben Jenkins on bass and Oli Kadouchkine on guitar and clarinet. Named after the Spanish artist Francisco Goya, the project itself is hugely influenced by visual art and filmmaking, attempting to create music that matches the epic scale of these forms of art.
||Five 'til Seven||
From their shared musical interests at school, Five ‘til Seven have grown a unique sound blending jazz and progressive rock. Featuring ambient guitar lines, groove-centric bass and flowing drum parts, the trio are the product of years of experimentation. The EP "Bishkek" (2019) first showed their talent for carefully crafted instrumental music that never forgets melody is king. Since moving to Uni, the band have strengthened their sound from the musical experiences available in London, Birmingham and Bristol. 2022 sees them embark on a tour with brand new material, ahead of release later in the year.
