Guido Spannocchi - All the Above (2019)

Third studio album by Vienna born London based saxophonist Guido Spannocchi after his sold out vinyl only debut "Ahead Only" and his internationally acclaimed second album "Terms & Conditions"

All titles on this album are original music and draw from eastern European Lullabies, contemporary jazz rhythms with hints of club grooves onto intricate harmonic structures and daring interplay. The delicate compositions come to live through the versatile approach of the ensemble led by Guido Spannocchi and present a refreshing individuality in the current wave of London Jazz.
