Sage Gateshead

As featured on BBC Radio 3 Jazz Lineup – Paul Edis (piano/clarinet/flute) Rob Walker (drums/percussion) and Paul Susans (electric and double bass) AKA Triptych bring a diverse repertoire and extensive experience to create original music that embraces a wealth of influences and different approaches.

Their music embraces long form composition, looking beyond the more conventional structures often found in straight-ahead jazz and including unexpected sounds and grooves.

The trio has performed at Gateshead International Jazz Festival, Darlington Jazz Festival, DJazz and various venues and clubs across the north (including Wakefield Jazz, the Jazz Café Newcastle, Gosforth Civic Theatre, Hexham Jazz Club).

In 2019 the trio worked alongside artist Lisa Delarny to perform an 80 minute set of original music, including three long-form suites with visuals created live by Delarny and projected above the band in real time.
