The Noonan Trio:
Matthew Bourne piano
Michael Bardon double bass
Sean Noonan drums, vocals, compositions
Sean Noonan is a celebrated N.Y. speaking drummer and composer based in London whose innovative music defies categorization. As a ?rhythmic storyteller,? he crafts imaginative narratives akin to modern-day sonic griots, seamlessly blending ancient traditions of wandering minstrels with contemporary musical forms.
Noonan collaborates with artists such as Marc Ribot, Malcolm Mooney (singer from CAN), Jamaaladeen Tacuma (bassist for Ornette Coleman), Irish American folk singer Susan McKeown, Malian Griot Abdoulaye Diabat? and the London Symphony Orchestra.
Featuring stellar pianist Matthew Bourne, honoured with the ?Jazz Innovation? prize at the BBC Radio Jazz Awards, and bassist Michael Bardon, celebrated for his ?unorthodox approach to music-making,? The compositions and improvisations follow Dr. Rupert Sheldrake?s notion that patterns of activity transcend traditional concepts of space and time, where music operates more out of habits than rules. Altogether, The Noonan Trio posits a deceptively real, fun, and emotionally unrestricted new world of the highest order.
