This deeply creative debut album is the sound of a group at once bedding in and breaking out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe organ trio format has a rich and varied history. The iconic sound of the Hammond organ has historically graced an array of genres, inspiring performers from Larry Young to Emerson, Lake and Palmer. Yet the format has often been overlooked as a medium for exploration, particularly as a vehicle for improvisation and free playing. Revival Room are on a mission to change that, following such contemporary organists as Alexander Hawkins, John Medeski and Daniel Formo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs Adam notes; “I’d been exploring other keyboard instruments for a few years, and the Hammond organ was one that I was trying to get into. I needed to play with people, and Johnny and Mark are both great at jazz, but also have a very inclusive perspective on improv too. The idea was that we tried to explore the possibilities of an organ trio in improvisation, bringing in non-jazz vocabularies as well as referencing parts of the tradition.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracks: You Funnin’ Me, Son? \/ Red Room \/ Monobrow \/ Day Of Rest \/ To And Frodo \/ April \/ Pines \/ Slippy \/ Ida Lupino\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"EFPI RECORDS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40385910079644,"sku":"FP036","price":14.38,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/1_bfd89b24-5556-4b22-9d56-13207b6ca41c.jpg?v=1626071284","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/adam-fairhall-mark-hanslip-johnny-hunter-revival-room","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
