Tim Garland: Weather Walker

Tim Garland’s Weather Walker Trio sees three world-class virtuosi at the height of their creative powers.

Having been the driving force behind several celebrated trios such as Lighthouse, Acoustic Triangle and Storms / Nocturnes, Garland’s experience has led him to a point of utmost clarity and intricacy in his work. To quote Chick Corea, one of Tim’s longtime collaborators over a period of eighteen years, “his level of genius is rare”.

The material for Weather Walker is born from Tim’s love of the natural world, in particular the Lake District. The music makes use of folk song and, for these series of concerts, some unconventional and spellbinding atmospheric devices. Jason Rebello has been close friends with Tim for almost 30 years and his own international career spanning Sting, Jeff Beck and an award winning solo album, makes him one of the UKs most experienced and creative pianists. Yuri Goloubev, Moscow’s own wunderkind of the bass, has a truly breathtaking expressive voice on his instrument, perfectly complimenting Grammy-winning Garland’s compositions which pack lyricism, power and interaction in equal measure.
