Pete Lyons
Regular club favourite, saxophonist Pete Lyons, has been a central figure on the Sheffield jazz scene for over thirty years, both as one of its top players and as part of the long established Sheffield Jazz Workshop.
Pete is now in the process of moving to London, so catch him while you can.
His playing over the years has embraced a variety of contemporary and experimental music, with a wide breadth of styles in his compositions for larger groups. In a small group setting his preferences revolve around developing improvised lines, which he does with a satisfying gutsy swing with influences such as Lee Konitz, Warne Marsh and New York tenor saxophonist Rich Perry.
Tonight he is accompanied by the Mike Gordon trio.
