GLASSWORKS

Glassworks is a piano/vocal duo from long-time collaborators, Emilie Boyd and Dan Brown. Meeting on the thriving Glasgow jazz scene, they joined forces to write multifacted music that draws heavily from jazz, folk and indie sensibilites. Their stripped-back, intimate setup allows the freedom for honest music that focuses on poetic storytelling, strong melodies, and has an improvisatory flair.

The Emilie Boyd Quintet plays contemporary music that is heartfelt, beautiful, elegant, sometimes experimental, and lies somewhere between the familiar and the unknown. We try to be adventurous musically and emotionally with jazz standards, using the possibilities that contemporary jazz techniques open up without losing the essence of these beloved songs. We also play originals that are firmly rooted in and inspired by the jazz canon, but bringing that sound into the modern day and keeping improvisation at the core of what We do. Despite their relative youth, all 5 players are seasoned jazz performers working across Scotland and further afield.
