About Nick Walters

He has just announced his majestic new album ‘Marine Moods’, set for release in October on his own D.O.T. Records imprint. The album revives his sextet, who last appeared together on his 2019 album ‘Active Imagination’. This stellar collection of musicians picks things up where they left off, delivering an exquisite suite of contemporary jazz-fusion, gleaning the very best elements from afro, modal and spiritual jazz.

‘Marine Moods’ is a collection of compositions inspired by the sea. The compositions are designed to allow space and creative freedom for all the musicians to express themselves and interact with one another. Much like the oceans which have inspired the album, the pieces take the listener through a range of moods – from the energetic optimism of ‘Gulf Stream’, through the darker hypnotic groove of ‘Hydrothermal’, to the stillness and peacefulness of the raga-inspired ‘Journey for Joan’. Recorded in one summer’s day in a roasting hot North London studio, ‘Marine Moods’ is a document of six musicians and friends coming together to improvise, interact and collaborate to create something new.

Line Up:
Nick Walters – trumpet & synths
Tenderlonious – flute & soprano
Rebecca Nash – piano
