Glasshopper, a London-based trio led by its saxophonist Jonathan Chung, has steadily been making its impact on the UK jazz scene since its debut EP in 2016. Born out of a love for melody and improvisation, the group brings together the creative minds of guitarist James Kitchman and drummer Corrie Dick. Exclusively for London Jazz festival, the band features the evocative vocals of Ed Begley (Archivist).

Influenced by the jazz, free, rock and folk worlds, the band performs Jonathan’s emotionally sophisticated compositions with reverence and abandon, intricately weaving together moments of sonic bliss and euphoric rock-outs. With improvisation at the heart of each performance, Jonathan, Corrie and James are unified in creating original interpretations that inspire fresh stories to unravel within the listener’s imagination.
