John Scofield and Dave Holland in concert

Concert highlights from jazz legends John Scofield and Dave Holland, live at Tampere Jazz Happening 2021, plus rising star drummer Jas Kayser’s inspirations.

Kevin Le Gendre presents live music from two giants in jazz, guitarist John Scofield and bassist Dave Holland, in concert at Tampere Jazz Happening 2021. Over their decade spanning careers, John Scofield and Dave Holland have recorded with the créme de la créme of the jazz world including Herbie Hancock, Joe Henderson, Roy Haynes and, most famously, Miles Davis (although at different times). As well as offering their impeccable rhythm and lyricism to countless jazz ensembles, they have also made their name as formidable band leaders and pioneers of their instruments. Performing as a duo, their Tampere Jazz Happening set offers an intimate mixture of their own compositions and timeless jazz standards.

Also in the programme, we hear from London-based, Berklee-trained rising star drummer Jas Kayser. Mentored by the likes of Terri Lyne Carrington, Danilo Perez and Ralph Peterson, Jas has since become one of the on-call drummers of the London jazz world and beyond, playing with the likes of Nubya Garcia, Alfa Mist, Ashley Henry, Kansas Smittys and Jorja Smith. She won Jazz FM's Breakthrough Act of 2021 and has recently released her debut album ‘Jas 5ive’ on jazz re:freshed. Here Jas shares some of the music that has inspired her, including a dream-like, groove driven track by West African duo the Cavemen.
