After grabbing our attention with his single “Really For Always” a few weeks back, award-winning bassist and composer Daniel Casimir returns with his new EP, Escapee. The London-based artist has become a regular fixture on the UK jazz scene providing his powerful upright sound for the likes of Julian Joseph, Jason Rebello, Lonnie Liston Smith, Ashley Henry, Camilla George, Nubya Garcia and more. A talented creative Casimir shapes exquisitely layered arrangements that marry a patchwork of jazz and soul. The 5-track EP features fellow rising stars on the scene, Moses Boyd, Joe Armon-Jones, Shirley Tetteh and vocalist Tess Hirst. You can catch Casimir at the Mau Mau bar in West London this Thursday – grab a ticket here. Check him out and support good music.
