WAYNE KRANTZ QUARTET

l

Krantz has been a frequent visitor to Scotland, but has generally played in his

familiar trio format, with electric bass and drums. His main stage concert at the

Glasgow Jazz Festival will add a new ingredient in the shape of American saxophonist

David Binney. His exhilarating electric guitar work reveals roots in both jazz and rock. ‘My initial

exposure to jazz came through rock, and I use rock and funk as a bottom line for improvisation, but I

don‘t think in terms of idioms in my music. and never have,‘ he says. His trio is usually a very tight but creative unit, and it will be fascinating to hear how Binney fits his distinctive musical input into the mix. Long time collaborator Tim Lefebvre and drummer Ari Hoenig complete what promises to be an incendiary outfit.
