Alister Spence ALWAYS EVER album launch

Alister Spence - piano

Alister is a Sydney-based pianist and composer who’s been an integral part of the Australian jazz and improvisation scene for more than 35 years in bands such as Clarion Fracture Zone, Wanderlust, The Australian Art Orchestra, Alister Spence Trio, Asteroid Ekosystem, Sensaround, and many other projects. He tours and records regularly with well-known improvisers including Satoko Fujii (Japan), Tony Buck (DE/Australia), Raymond MacDonald (Scotland), Ed Kuepper (Australia).

Always Ever is Spence’s second solo piano album following the release of Whirlpool in 2020 (listed in ‘Best of 2020, New York City Jazz Review’). Always Ever is released on April 24. Early reviews are strongly positive such as:

‘Indispensable! Because if art has any enduring function, it is not simply to move us. It is to unsettle us, just enough to make us listen again’ (Thierry De Clemensat, Paris Move).
