Description
Soul Mama presents an expressive composer and proficient bandleader, Bill Laurance, the five-time Grammy winning pianist and composer and founding member of fusion powerhouse Snarky Puppy, continues to explore an exciting range of sounds and ensemble combinations.
From the beautiful symphonic collaboration with the Untold Orchestra on the EP Zeal (2021), through to the barnstorming collaboration with the WDR Big Band Live at the Philharmonie Cologne album (2019), or the exquisite Bloom LP, recorded with The Untold Orchestra (2023) – there are few creative avenues that the industrious musician is yet to explore.
The same enthusiasm that made those projects a success has led to the formation of Laurance’s trio, featuring drummer Oscar Ogden (Doom Cannon, Charlie Stacey and Conor Albert) and bassist Menelik Claffey (Byron Wallen, Secret Night Gang and Charlie Stacey). The trio have developed a musical kinship, which has seen new ideas and instrumentation added to the sonic palette.
Bill Laurance is a champion of cutting-edge keyboard developments, and is endorsed by Rhodes, Moog, Mellotron, Sequential, Korg, Nord, Roli Seaboard, Yamaha, Roland, Arp Odyssey, Keyscape, Sound Brenner, Native Instruments and MXR.
