Ben Tunnicliffe is a bass player who’s professional career began in his teens and who’s achievements show he’s as passionate exploring acoustic folk as he is reconstructing electronic music.
Pioneering the use of synthesizer as the bass instrument, Ben creates with his quartet an ethereal landscape that merges a low end similar to an organ trio with the forward-facing sonic possibilities of electronic culture.
On their first tour, Ben’s grassroots approach will bring drummer Alex Goodyear, multi-instrumentalist Maria Lamburn and a keyboardist to all corners of the UK, sharing an alien landscape that dares to stand alone amongst other synth-touched Jazz groups of today.
