Rick Simpson (L)
Profile
London-based pianist Rick Simpson plays a wide variety of music, and leads his own group playing original jazz music. Everything All Of The Time: Kid A Revisited is a chance for Simpson to revisit one of the formative albums of his childhood, adding his own voice into the panoply of Radiohead revisions from both inside and outside the jazz world.
Simpson’s burgeoning career has seen him forge his own path in the crowded London scene, and he has performed with musicians including Christian Scott Atunde Adjuah, Eric Harland, Joe Sanders, Michael Janisch, Ernesto Simpson, Martin Speake, Earl Burness Travis, Stan Sulzmann, Jeff Williams and Brandon Allen. Rick is a regular performer at the top London jazz venues including Ronnie Scott’s, the 606 Jazz Club, Pizza Express Dean Street, The Vortex and The Bull’s Head, and he has appeared at larger UK venues such as the Royal Festival Hall and the Purcell Room. He is also active as a teacher and educator.
