Glerum Omnibus

Ernst Glerum: doublebass,

Timothy Banchet: piano,

Jamie Peet: drums

Until recently, Ernst Glerum played piano in his Omnibus trio. Now he’s back at his main instrument, the double bass, giving way to young pianist Timothy Banchet, who’s being recognized all over as a ‘super talent’, with ‘the whole jazz tradition in is back pocket’ (Jazzenzo). Drummer Jamie Peet ‘lifts the music into the 21st century with his hip-hop and breakbeat-esque licks’ (de Volkskrant). Their recent album Handful sounds vintage and contemporary at the same time, a fluent mixture of swing, bop, soul jazz and even an Indonesian traditional.
