Event 18
Asaf Sirkis Trio
– Cathedral
Israeli-born drummer Asaf Sirkis with Tassos Spiliotopoulos on guitar and Patrick Bettison on bass and harmonica unleash thunderous, hard-hitting jazz fusion.
“Since arriving in London from Israel at the end of the end of the '90s, Asaf Sirkis has earned a reputation as one of the world's premier drummers”
Ian Patterson, All About Jazz, September 2008
'Israeli-born drummer and London resident Asaf Sirkis unleashes with thunderous abandon on this hard-hitting fusion offering that harkens back to a time before the genre became codified, diluted and reduced to a critical joke.' Bill Milkowski, Jazz Times (USA), April 2009
'Sirkis is simply the most sensitive of percussionists.' Chris Parker, January 2009
'Devastatingly creative.' John Fordham, The Guardian, 2008
Sirkis is not only an inventive drummer but also a composer of rigour, wit and surprising delicacy.' Chris Ingham, Mojo Magazine, October 2008
'Asaf Sirkis, the world class drum phenomenon reminiscent of Jack DeJohnette and Tony Williams at the height of their powers that's taken the British scene by storm over the last few years.' Renaissance Man, 2004
