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.
“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

“Unfurl, under Olivia’s gentle but determined vision, has carved out an inviting, personal
sound that draws the listener in with its searching melodies and tumbling rhythms. More
than simply a fusion of jazz, Indian and Arabic aesthetics, Unfurl’s music is a genuine
expression, showing how varied interests and inspirations can blend to result in a greater
whole: one that transports the attentive listener to a place by turns delicate, mysterious
and moving.”
Steve Mead, Artistic Director, Manchester Jazz Festival.
Unfurl have been enthusiastically received at numerous Jazz festivals across the country,
including Manchester, Marsden, Marlborough, Brecon, Gateshead and the London Jazz
Festival as well as in numerous clubs and theatre venues across the country.
Olivia Moore is the band leader and inspiration behind Unfurl. She is an experienced
performer, bringing her energy and sensitivity to the band, dedicated to Jazz and Indian
classical violin though she also draws her influence from flamenco, gypsy and folk music.
