Lee Jones Quartet
Lee Jones is a British jazz guitarist and composer, combining influences from modern jazz, fusion, blues, avant-garde and rock styles. Lee has regularly performed throughout the UK scene and worked alongside Larry Coryell, Martin Taylor and Dennis Rollins. Since graduating from the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire Jazz Course in 2007, he has released six solo albums with former WEA producer Simon Tittley, featured on Jazz FM radio and in 2019 completed a PhD in music composition at the University of Salford, Manchester.
Lee relocated to Melbourne earlier this year and tonight will be his debut performance in Perth with the quartet, performing originals from Lee's critically reviewed three ensemble albums, Swish, Songs from the 13th Hour and After the Pier. Lee has a new eBook and solo album scheduled for release in 2022-23.
