Saxophonist and composer Hannah Horton is back at HAC with a brand-new jazz club that is causing a significant buzz in the jazz industry. Keen to bring international standard jazz music to Haverhill, A-list guests and up-coming artists, Hannah is an artist who has carved her own unique sound and vision over her career. She will be bringing her highly acclaimed quartet which includes Tim Lapthorn on piano, Rob Statham on bass and Nic France on drums.

With Tommy Scott.

He studied classical piano as a child and was branded as a prodigy when he first burst onto the jazz scene at the age of sixteen, playing at many festivals across the UK with his trio.

His performing career began when the great US pianist Joey Calderazzo invited Tommy to sit in with his band when Tommy was just 13! More recently, Tommy has been living in Paris, where he has been playing with many fine musicians from around Europe and New York, such as Shimon Gambourg, Raphaël Pannier, Katerina Pipili, and David Sausey. His sensitive playing has made him an in-demand accompanist for singers in Paris.

Tommy’s 2020 debut album as a leader ‘Going For It’, featuring an all-star rhythm section of Asaf Sirkis on drums and Yuri Goloubev on double bass, grabbed the attention of audiences and media across the UK. Tommy has become well known for his evocative and moving compositions.

“Tommy’s remarkable focus and determination has enabled him to absorb some of the most complex pianistics in both classical music and jazz.” – John Fordham (Jazz UK)
