Sekoya Band

Live Music Event

Band Bio

Simon Toner - double bass, Gavin Lamont - drums, Luke Cunningham - piano

Dynamic, contemplative and majestic. Sekoya has carved out a sincere, personal and original sound. Drawing on their love of electronic, contemporary orchestral, world, folk and jazz music, Sekoya takes in influences including Esbjorn Svensson, Espen Eriksen, Björk, Brad Mehldau, Gogo Penguin, Mammal Hands, Hania Rani, Avishai Cohen, Aaron Parks, Emil Brandqvist, Vijay Iyer, Tingvall Trio, Yussef Dayes, Tigran Himasyan, Hiromi and Makiko Hirabayashi.

Formed in Glasgow in late-2021, Sekoya is the result of 10 years of collaboration between 3 active composers, musicians and friends, sidemen on the DIY/indie scene for a number of years, coming together to make their dream project a reality. All three members contribute equally to the writing process: one that favours the creation of a powerful group dynamic over individual solos. They have forged their own path and their unique sound grew out of long improvised rehearsals/meditations. The intention has always been to write interplay music which expresses their lives, inspired by European jazz, soul, minimalism, electronic music and reflecting (diverse and dynamic) Scottish modernity. They each brought their own backgrounds and histories; playing nu-jazz, folk, rock, soul, blues, Scottish trad and modern textural orchestral music; and found joy in playing together.

“Sekoya is an interdisciplinary trio combining the harmony from European musics and American jazz with articulate rhythms and decisive grooves to create a genre-defying musical entanglement uniquely their own. Vibrant Celtic-inspired piano melodies are interwoven with flowing bass lines over a foundation of propulsive drums creating an almost cinematic sound. The amalgam of these three instrumentalists is a singular sonic spirit that focuses on energy and improvised interplay.” - David Hagen Media
