For her latest album, ‘ReWired’, pianist Janette Mason has selected a wide range of tunes from timeless standards to modern chart classics from the likes of Gary Numan, David Bowie, Kate Bush and Olivia Rodrigo. With Janette’s fierce and inventive arrangements pulling everything together, the original tunes’ irresistible melodic personalities are daringly expanded and reconfigured by the trio so that they delight the listener anew with the depth and sophistication of jazz while retaining the direct appeal of pop. Mixing deep grooves, gutsy swing, blazing solos and unforgettable melody, this is timeless music re-wired for the present day! With Tom Mason on bass and Eric Ford on drums.
