October 2019
A very exciting day! I'm sat listening to all the mixed and mastered versions of my songs and it's really been brought to life by my mixer Nicholas Dover at Canyon Sound and the wonderful people at Optimum Mastering in Bristol. Thanks guys, you've done an awesome job. October 29th is the big day people and at the end of this week you'll be able to download a few tracks as part of a pre-order. I'll keep you posted...

September 2019
All good stories take time to develop and i've taken my time to craft 11 original songs for my second album due for release October 29th at the 606 in London. I can now tell you the title is:
"The Stories We Tell Ourselves"
This is a very personal album for me and reflects on themes of love, relationships and identity. My collaborations on this album are excitingly diverse, ranging from straight ahead jazz singers and instrumentalists to wide ranging artists in their own field like two-time Grammy nominee Raul Midon.
I can't wait to share it with you all!

Well, both August and September have been busy for me and I feel so happy to have received great feedback for my album. I don't have many copies left of the LTD editions so make sure you grab yours by clicking on the link above. Thank you again to all who have listened, bought and kindly reviewed my album. Next step...let's get on to writing album No.2!!
"An Excellent debut from British trumpeter Gary Alesbrook"
All About Jazz
“Jazz In Movies is a pleasure in a way that new jazz albums are not so often anymore: melodic, subtly swinging, elevated by inventive, exciting soloing. My only cavil is that I wished it were longer.”
Listomania, Bath
“Joyous and uplifting music that comes highly recommended.”

Another busy month for pushing the album. Great reviews so far and looking forward to confirming some festivals for next year off the back of them.
