“For the last ever gig at Cafe Lento it had to be the Tom Neale Trio- Tom on alto, Sam Gardner on drums and Sam Watts on keys- all LCOM ex-alumni. They had played the very first gig way back in 2008 so it was fitting they should play us out. And what a marvellous, celebratory evening it proved to be!
Almost 70 people crowded into and outside of our tiny space to catch the brilliant playing of the trio, augmented by Marcus Penrose’s thrilling basslines.
Playing many pieces from his latest recording Tom’s compositions were lyrical, dynamic and played with with such evident joy, skill and enthusiasm that you couldn’t fail to get that buzz you feel when experiencing really good , original music.
An altogether amazing, unforgettable evening.
Book this band!!!”
