Whilst composing and producing this second foray into jazz fusion, I've been meditating on those aspects of my life that have changed since the release of Wise Up, Wee Boy. I've become a parent for the first time, which has thrown open a million new thoughts and emotions.

Musician, composer and producer Sam Beste, aka The Vernon Spring, muddles cinematic spoken word segments with cosmic piano flourishes and jazzy, dusty rhythms on 'Under a Familiar Sun'. Beste has played piano on an impressive number of records, from Leon Vynehall's 'Nothing Is Still' to Kano's 'Hoodies All Summer'. As a solo artist, he prefers to work as The Vernon Spring, accenting his limber piano performance with kaleidoscopic electronic processes and collaborations. Acclaimed English writer Max Porter reads over Beste's muted Duval Timothy-style tones on 'The Breadline', and Hamburg's Iko Niche is barely audible on 'Mustafa', her digitally-altered voice woven into Beste's patchwork of electric piano vamps and field recordings. 'Under a Familiar Sun' is engagingly sincere, and Beste's a talented producer - the tracks featuring New York-based polymath aden on vocals, 'Esrever Ni Rehtaf' and 'Counted Strings' stand out particularly. Her soaring, breathy vocals are the perfect foil for Beste's cosmic tones.

David Roy Eldridge (January 30, 1911 – February 26, 1989), nicknamed "Little Jazz", was an American jazz trumpeter.

Elles Bailey is a British singer, songwriter, and bandleader from Bristol. Her work is a contemporary hybrid of raw blues-rock, rough-hewn blue-eyed soul, and stirring, gospelized Americana, all delivered with a forcefully expressive, deeply smoky instrument existing at the crossroads of Janis Joplin, Maggie Bell, and Kim Carnes.

When I first met Daniela Soledade (Soul-ah-dodgy), she was about to take the stage in a very red dress for one of Nate Najar’s Jazz Holiday shows. She was excited backstage, but it was obvious she was nervous stepping on the Hough Hall stage with a full band that included bassist John Lamb.
