Fruit tree project "Difficult to categorise, but always inventive, always melodic and full of surprise"

Seven Jazz
 
 
Fruit Tree provided one of the most exciting gigs of the season.  Their music was innovative and refreshingly different. As musicians they illustrated talent, commitment and good humour. Looking forward to their return.

I wasn’t sure what to expect when Fruit Tree Project played at Seven recently. We were treated to  Dave Evans (piano) own compositions supported by electric bass, drums and at times, Santoor. Whilst managing subtle shifts in mood, tempo changes, riffs and even exotic –sounding scales, Dave provides well fashioned melodies that stay with you after the gig. Expect sonorous bass solos from Mr. Kenny Higgins, driving percussion from Alex Wibrew and intricate solos from Dave Evans himself. Furthermore, the Project can really cross boundaries when they invite their guests along.  On the occasion I saw them, they played an empathetic set with Kamaljeet Ajimal on santoor which demonstrated  the breadth of the Project’s exploratory dynamics. 
Fruit Tree Project are an exciting, contemporary, creative, accessible  and innovative new band capable of exploring new terrain whilst, at the same time, taking audiences along with them!

Led by the skilled and energetic Dave Evans they take on grooves and 
semi-free excitement equally to create a thrilling array of sounds.

“What an incredible band! So passionate, each
piece full of emotion and verve, their distinctive
style showing off the skills and musicianship of each
member but never selfishly. Really, really Looking
forward to the forthcoming EP”
