Portico Quartet
Described as being like an Indy band that plays post-jazz, Portico Quartet play melodic, rhythmic music that mixes the inspiration of Philip Glass and Steve Reich with a very contemporary kind of jazz improvisation. It’s the blend of ethereal saxophone, the steel pan-like Hang, clattering drums and earthy double-bass that gives their music it’s unique, beautiful sound. Their dance friendly brand of hook-laden, post-jazz was honed busking across Europe and playing in unusual spaces; churches, galleries, chill-out zones and has earned them a cult following. They have created an inimitable sound that has been compared to Radiohead, E.S.T and The Cinematic Orchestra amongst others and their latest album ISLA, Real World Records, was released to widespread critical acclaim.
