*Line up: Robert Mitchell - Piano/Keys/Spoken Word Zayn Mohammed - Guitar Laurie Lowe - Drums * Diversity is at the heart of Robert Mitchell’s remarkable career. His recent tenure as Artist in Residence at Morley College provided the setting for a new venture that builds on all his previous legacy while sounding quite unlike any of it.

Drawing inspiration from the heavy fusion of Chick Corea and Allan Holdsworth, the psychedelic bluesy swagger of Jimi Hendrix, and the fearless multi-media explorations of Cecil Taylor, Little Black Book brings together three bravura players in an uplifting celebration. Laurie Lowe on drums and Zayn Mohammed on guitar bring the exact combination of power, accuracy and unbounded imagination to make the project come alive.

All the compositions were written specially with the trio’s unique blend of musical personalities in mind with Mitchell noting that “it’s been very exciting to explore the world of electronic keyboards, with the challenge of taking on multiple roles, from lead voice to bass, all live in the studio. And I’m fulfilling a long-held dream to work more with guitar and realize the sense of excitement and exploration that it brings.”

Little Black Book is the latest telling of a story in which every chapter is more intriguing than the last.

The debut album - Blueprint (Of An Infinite Gift) - is out on Whirlwind Recordings!
