Tristan Banks is a world-class drummer and percussionist who has worked with Roy Ayers, Steve Winwood, David Gilmour, Beverley Knight, Hexagonal and many others. Mixing influences from straightahead jazz, Latin jazz and fusion, his all-star Quartet - Paul Booth (tenor saxophone), Davide Mantovani (bass) and John Crawford (piano) - play music that combines high-octane virtuoso performance and sublimely melodic composition. At Off the Rails, the band will be featuring material from their debut album, released on the Ubuntu label in 2023. As critic John Fordham described them, they are “a band of craftsmen playing the forms of acoustic jazz they relish, and their pleasure in that is infectiously palpable.”
