Only a couple of weeks until I record my second album at the beautiful Fieldgate studios near Cardiff. It has a real grand piano so my Keyboard player, Anders Olinder, can't wait to get his hands on it! Ian Matthews on drums and Adam King on bass will all be making the trip for three days in the studio. I have some awesome guess on the album too. Matt Hopkins, Guitar, Phil King and Elliott Cole on Vocals. This is going to be a big one!
Still have time for gigs so check out the dates above and come and say hi on one of them...

It's been a while but i've been tucked away writing the second album. I'd say I'm halfway through and so happy with what I've done so far. I've been working with some incredible musicians. Elliott Cole, Phil King and Matt Hopkins who are all great musicians in their own right. I can't wait to share it all with you.
In the meantime, here is a gig from last week from the Future Inn, Bristol. We had a great night and it was a good warm up before our slot at the Bristol Jazz and Blues Festival next month.

September 2018...
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.

July 2018...PT 2
What a busy month! Almost half my LTD edition CD's have been sold so thank you to all those people who have supported this album. The album is now available to stream on spotify, iTunes, Apple, Deezer etc so head on over to your favourite streaming site and have a listen.
I have been travelling a lot over the last month and received some kind words about my album and some fans from all corners of the globe.
I also had a feature in a couple of local Bristol Magazines. Bristol 27/7 and TheBristolMag. Thank you to them both for giving me a platform. Onwards and upwards. Next stop is waiting to hear feedback from the critics! Fingers crossed that they like it too.
