Iverson (pictured) is best known as the founder and 17-year pianist of the iconic New York band The Bad Plus, a game-changing collective whom the NY Times described as "better than anyone at melding the sensibilities of post-60s jazz and indie rock." "He is endlessly resourceful; there is never a moment when he isn't either launching or expanding a new idea." - Guardian

Multi award-winner and Trinity Laban educator Martin Speake has been at the forefront of UK jazz since the mid 1980s "He is one of the most interesting and rewarding alto saxophonists now playing jazz on any continent." - Jazz Times
