Paul G Smyth

Described by The New York City Jazz Record as “a revelation”, the pianist Paul G. Smyth has released critically acclaimed duo albums with Peter Brötzmann, Evan Parker, Chris Corsano, John Wiese and John Russell on his label Weekertoft; performed with Charles Gayle, Derek Bailey, Keiji Haino, Wadada Leo Smith and Okkyung Lee, and toured with large-scale instrumental psych-rockers The Jimmy Cake and synth trio Boys of Summer, creating a body of work that has led The Free Jazz Collective to call him “one of the great contemporary pianists”.
