Description

George Crowley is a saxophonist, clarinettist, composer and promoter based in London.

Since his arrival in the capital in 2007, Crowley has steadily established himself as a key player within the city's burgeoning creative jazz and improv scene, and increasingly well known further afield, performing across the UK and Europe.



As a performer he is active across a range of styles; from his own through-composed new music and the experimental improv of Agile Experiments, through to the jazz tradition, the colourful fusion of Yazz Ahmed?s bands or anarchic grimey pop of Melt Yourself Down Crowley's energy and expressive, warm saxophone sound mark him out as a musician to watch.

He can also be found playing with bands and musicians such as the Ivo Neame Quartet + Dodeka, Julian Argüelles' Septet, Michael Chillingworth's Septet, Rick Simpson's Klämmer and the Olie Brice Quartet featuring Jeff Williams.



?...a fine young composer/player who knows where the music has been and where he?s headed with it.? - John Fordham, The Guardian



?Rarely does a player so young debut with such a fully rounded tone and range of writing skills, so keep a keen ear out for Crowley: the future could yet be his.?
