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.
