Helena Kay Quartet

With a saxophone style that’s both deeply personal and honed in the classic jazz tradition, Helena Kay is one of the UK’s most compelling talents. Having followed their Young Scottish Jazz Musician of the Year title with the prestigious Peter Whittingham Jazz Award, Kay recently added the Drake YolanDa Award to their collection. Kay has earned critical acclaim for their outstanding work with pianist Zoe Rahman’s octet as well as for their own two albums, Moon Palace and the more recent Golden Sands.

‘A formidable saxophonist and composer… Quite simply, outstanding!’ Nick Lea, Jazz Views

‘Kay and their impressive trio have created a nostalgic jazz album that highlights the ensemble's chemistry beautifully, through exciting melodies and captivating musicality.’ Isabel Marquez, Jazz in Europe

‘tenor saxophonist Helena Kay’s second album has a beautiful poise and assurance, that radiates from every groove’ **** Chris Searle, Morning Star
