Fergus McCreadie is an astonishing talent. Still only 20, he is creating music that draws on the Scottish landscape and musical traditions for inspiration, yet honours jazz masters from McCoy Tyner to Esbjorn Svensson. His self-released debut album Turas won Album of the Year at the 2019 Parliamentary Jazz Awards.
Tonight the sensational young pianist and his magnificent trio (featuring Young Scottish Jazz Musician of the Year 2017, bassist David Bowden and drummer Stephen Henderson, one of Jazzwise magazine’s ones to to watch in 2018) perform music from Turas (Scottish Gaelic for Journey). The album takes the listener on an auditory journey of the band’s native land. From the West Hebrides to the East Neuk of Fife, the music paints an evocative picture of the landscapes it has taken inspiration from.
