Led Bib is a renowned British jazz band known for their experimental and energetic sound. With influences ranging from rock to free jazz, Led Bib has carved out a unique space in the contemporary jazz scene. Their music combines intricate compositions with improvisation, creating a dynamic and captivating live performance.

Formed in 2003, Led Bib quickly gained recognition for their innovative approach to jazz. Drawing inspiration from artists such as *Fire! Orchestra* and *Acoustic Ladyland*, Led Bib's music pushes boundaries and challenges traditional notions of genre. Their albums have received critical acclaim, earning them nominations for prestigious awards like the Mercury Prize.

Their distinct style has also led them to collaborate with other notable musicians including *Mary Halvorson*, *Jeff Parker*, and *Craig Taborn*. Led Bib's live shows are an immersive experience, with each member bringing their own unique energy to the stage. Whether you're a seasoned jazz enthusiast or new to the genre, Led Bib's music is sure to captivate and inspire.

From the Homeric invocation of ethereal opener “Atom Story,” it becomes stunningly clear that It’s Morning, the latest album from the uncategorizable UK ensemble Led Bib, is meant to take the listener on a journey. The wideranging and evocative set is also a testament to the distance the band has travelled on its own evolutionary path. If not the endpoint, it at least sits at a far-flung guidepost along a transformative odyssey undertaken by the eclectic ensemble. “Led Bib has developed an identifiable improvisation language over the last 15 years,” explains drummer and bandleader Mark Holub. “After all that time we started to wonder what it might be like to take that language into a whole new area.” The most immediately apparent change from past Led Bib outings is the addition of vocals, folding the band’s boundary-stretching vocabulary into gorgeous if complex song forms. The band’s core line-up – Holub, bassist Liran Donin, saxophonists Chris Williams and Pete Grogan, and new keyboardist Elliot Galvin – are joined by a pair of gifted vocalists: Sharron Fortnam, a co-founder of the North Sea Radio Orchestra whose intoxicating mezzo soprano has also graced recordings by the noted British prog-punk band Cardiacs; and Jack Hues, best known as frontman for the 80s new wave band Wang Chung.
