Described as being like an indie band that plays post-jazz, Portico Quartet play melodic, rhythmic music that mixes the inspiration of Philip Glass and Steve Reich with a very contemporary kind of jazz improvisation. It’s the blend of ethereal saxophone, the steel pan-like Hang, clattering drums and earthy double-bass that gives their music it’s unique, beautiful sound. Their dance friendly brand of hook-laden, post-jazz was honed busking across Europe and playing in unusual spaces; churches, galleries, chill-out zones and has earned them a cult following. They have created an inimitable sound that has been compared to the Penguin Café Orchestra, E.S.T and The Cinematic Orchestra amongst others. Isla is out now on Real World Records.

‘Try to imagine the coolest film never made. We mean really cool. Steve McQueen and Samuel L, on ‘Easy Rider’ choppers, in a French film-noir spy film, infiltrating a Yakuza Samurai cult. Portico Quartet would provide the soundtrack.’ Channel 4.com

‘A strikingly original sound.’ The Times
