Voted one of the 'Hottest Bass Players in the World' by readers of Bass Player magazine, virtuoso British-Asian bass player Shez Raja is renowned for his high-energy live shows, unique Indo-jazz-funk sound, and global star collaborations with Mike Stern, Randy Brecker, Dennis Chambers, and Wayne Krantz.
Shez will be joined by a special guest—the electric guitar sensation, Guthrie Govan. Guthrie’s many accolades include being voted 'Guitarist of the Year' in Guitarist Magazine and appearing on the cover of Guitar Player magazine. As Hans Zimmer’s go-to player, his virtuosic technique and bold creativity have earned him a reputation as guitar royalty on the world stage.
Following spectacular performances at major venues and jazz festivals worldwide, Shez and his band have amassed a devoted following and forged a reputation as one of the most entertaining live acts on the scene today.
The band will perform fresh music from their new album, Spellbound, inspired by Shez’s travels to the Punjab in the Indian subcontinent. Expect exciting music that transcends cultural boundaries, blending East with West through mesmerising melodies, intricate rhythms, and heartfelt compositions.
Featuring Shez Raja (bass), Guthrie Govan (electric guitar), Chris Jerome (keyboards), and Sophie Alloway (drums).
