Pianodrome Live: Nimbus Sextet + Scotts Baroque

Nimbus Sextet are one of the most innovative bands in the new wave of UK jazz. Led by pianist/keyboardist Joe Nichols and signed to Acid Jazz Records, the multi-national contemporary jazz outfit fuses their jazz, world, hip-hop and funk influences uniquely into a strong melodic blend that has set them apart from their contemporaries.

Their new album 'Forward Thinker' features guest spots from top UK jazz musicians including Nathaniel Cross, Jackson Mathod, Charlotte de Graaf, Jonny Enser and others. This special concert at The Pianodrome as part of the Edinburgh Fringe 2022 follows hot off the heels of album launch shows at the prestigious New Morning in Paris and Pizza Express in London, and a packed out debut performance at Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club back in January.

Having garnered widespread critical acclaim from the likes of Jazzwise, BBC Radio 2 and major support from Jazz FM (including achieving the prestigious 'Album Of The Week' spotlight with both of their albums), the band have firmly established themselves as a major voice in the new wave of British jazz.
