Genre-Defying Jazz, Funk & Improvisation. Tom Ford brings his wide-ranging musical influences to Toulouse Lautrec for a new monthly residency driven by improvisation, curiosity and fearless creative expression. Moving fluidly between jazz, funk and soul, the music pays tribute to artists as varied as The Police, The Smiths, Allan Holdsworth and Milton Nascimento. Rather than being restricted by genre, Tom uses these influences as a springboard for something distinctly his own: open, spontaneous music that continues to evolve with every performance. Each instalment of the residency will offer something different, reflecting Tom’s continual pursuit of creative growth and change. With support from CLIO TRIO Originally formed as a way for Jamie to connect with friends through music, CLIO has developed a distinctive sound drawing on the depth of the UK music scene. For this stripped-back performance, Jamie joins flautist Belle Brunson and pianist Lior Solomons-Wise to perform his original compositions alongside reinterpretations of other songs, with echoes of Norman Willmore and Kenny Wheeler.
