Unfurl’s music expands across con­tin­ents, com­bin­ing Indian Ragas, fla­menco and Arabic music with impro­visa­tion to create an ori­gin­al sound ran­ging from the dra­mat­ic to the sublime.

Unfurl have been enthu­si­ast­ic­ally received at numer­ous Jazz fest­ivals across the coun­try, includ­ing Manchester, Marsden, Marl­bor­ough, Brecon, Gateshead and London Jazz Fest­ivals as well as in numer­ous clubs and theatre venues across the country.
The aim of the band is to bring togeth­er all our indi­vidu­al influ­ences to create music which is entirely new, fresh, ori­gin­al and intriguing. At our last con­cert at Birm­ing­ham Sym­phony Hall in Decem­ber 2013, Tony Dudley-Evans classed us as being “Dif­fer­ent” and “Refresh­ing”

Unfurl Quotes

“This group has a very per­son­al sound that is truly unique.….…each member brings a vast array of global influ­ences to the table, but this is not world music or ethnic music; it is simply music — a fusion in the truest sense. Enrich­ing and full of life.” Chris Ack­er­ley the​soun​dofnow​.com
