UK, Ireland, Italy
Laura Jurd - trumpet

Tara Cunningham - guitar

“Rites & Revelations” promises London based composer-trumpeter Laura Jurd's new album, to be released around the time of her concert(s) at the Jazzfestival Saalfelden. An even deeper and somewhat more experimental dive into Jazz-Folk from her own Scottish roots to the Louis Armstrong-favorite “St. James Infirmary”, her new musical offering also comes with a new line-up: Austrian-born bass player Ruth Goller, Scottish drummer Corrie Dick, he of her former group Dinosaur and the Shetlandish duo Norman & Corrie, as well as Irish fiddler Ultan O'Brien and guitarist Tara Cunningham. “Her work is always spiritedly accessible, and often suggests wordless songs”, as John Fordham wrote in “The Guardian”.
