Matthew Halsall: On The Go (2011)
On The Go is the third album from trumpeter Matthew Halsall, one of a growing number of British jazz players who prefers to remain outside the London scene. Halsall’s chosen base of operations is Manchester, in the north of England. His inspirations come from that city’s own music scene (where he’s also a DJ), as well as from the late-’50s/early-’60s sounds of John Coltrane, Miles Davis and Art Blakey. He takes this mix of inspirations to create a unique, and beautiful, sound of his own.
