Leo Marland's "Plastic Highways"

Plastic Highways is a set of music performed by Leo Marland (alto saxophone), Eric Tsai (guitar), Henry Hall (double bass) and Tom Vogel (Drum set). The music consists of a set of melodies which are improvised around and inbetween with a focus on creating beauty within thick, chaotic textures.

Known for his unique and often unpredictable improvisation style, Marland’s sound is modern and sporadic, taking inspiration from artists across the jazz lineage and beyond, including Eric Dolphy, John Coltrane and Robert Glasper.

The opportunity to listen to engage in and ponder the work of this unique upcoming young Australian jazz artist is one not to be missed.
