Described by
Rolling Stone
as 'one of the best, robust listening experiences you're likely to have
all year', MOBO nominated Irish musician
David Lyttle shifts seamlessly between the personas of jazz drummer, recording artist,
composer and producer. His
latest album
Faces
features collaborations with
jazz
icon Joe Lovano, hip hop visionary Talib Kweli and Irish music star Duke
Special. It earned him nominations in the 2015 MOBO Awards and Urban
Music Awards.
David has just returned from
his U.S. residency, a 5000 mile road trip in his red Cadillac DeVille
performing for cowboys, UFO tourists, bikers and the unsuspecting public
in an attempt to understand what people really think of jazz. His next
major outing is in China, where he'll spend seven weeks as the British
Council and PRSF's Musician In Residence.
