Jason Rebello | UK
British pianist Jason Rebello is regarded as one of the most inventive pianists to emerge from the UK since he burst onto the scene in the early 90’s with a run of albums for the BMG label.
Jason Rebello has worked mainly with electronic keyboards in his own groups (as well as with Sting and Jeff Beck); but for his Edition debut he decided it was time to say something on the instrument he loves. In early 2016 Jason released his debut solo piano album, featuring mostly originals inspired by the people and places that have been important in his career.
As Jason explained: ‘Throughout my career I’ve had the opportunity to play in wide-ranging and diverse scenarios, but never had an opportunity to immerse myself fully in the piano. I’ve reached a point now where I feel there is something to say with just a piano and I’m relishing this opportunity to consolidate all my musical experiences on this record.”
Jason is also a regular collaborator with Tim Garland’s projects and appears on Songs to the North Sky, One and Weather Walker.
“In terms of sheer ability and potential, Jason is probably the finest young jazz musician this country has produced. His playing has great poise and maturity, which is unusual in somebody so young.”
