Live projects

Webb’s current live projects include:

Coltrane and Hartman on Impulse! feat. Denys Baptiste and Marvin Muoneke

Revisiting the famous album when John Coltrane teamed up with vocalist Johnny Hartman to explore their favourite romantic standards, tenor sax boss Denys Baptiste is joined by the extraordinary vocalist Marvin Muoneke and a top-flight rhythm section of Gary Crosby (bass), Alex Webb (piano) and Alfonso Vitale (drums).

As well as the songs from the 1963 Impulse album, the group explores other standards that Coltrane liked to play, including All Or Nothing At All, Out Of This World, Say It Again and a vocal version of Moment’s Notice.  The original album was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2013, 50 years after its release.  

Lulu Pierre

A recent arrival on the London jazz vocal scene, Pierre has proved herself to be a classic Torch Song stylist with the sass of Nancy Wilson, and the swing of Sarah Vaughan – and a knack for heartbreaking ballads too. Alex Webb’s Trio provides tight and carefully worked-out arrangements for standards and originals, as well as some surprising non-jazz repertoire choices.  ‘Brilliant vocals by Lulu backed by an amazing set of musicians. Thoughtful and great songs choices in the set’ – DesignMyNight review.
