David Lyttle Trio
Described by Rolling Stone magazine as « one of the best, robust listening experiences you’re likely to have all year » and by The Independent as « the best in jazz coming out of Ireland today », David Lyttle is a MOBO Award nominated jazz drummer and composer. Starting out as a child performer at the age of four with his family band, he first reached a national audience as a jazz drummer in the band of legendary Irish jazz guitarist Louis Stewart, before going on to perform around the globe and collaborate with the music world’s upper echelon, from jazz giants Joe Lovano and Kurt Rosenwinkel to hip hop visionaries Talib Kweli and Soweto Kinch, and in the trios of jazz icons of today David Kikoski and Jesse van Ruller. David has brought his unique performance concepts to the U.S., where he carried out a coast-to-coast residency in his red Cadillac DeVille, performing jazz for cowboys, UFO tourists, bikers and the unsuspecting public; and China where he spent six weeks as the British Council’s Musician In Residence and made a further two visits with his solo drums show last year. David’s work has been written about in Rolling Stone, The Guardian, The Times, The Independent and The Examiner.
