Elliot Galvin is one of the rising stars of jazz. A superbly gifted composer and pianist with a maverick imagination, he has a magpie-like ability to blend a disparate world of influences into his own. Galvin's music is both playful and deadly serious, drawing on a wide range of influences from Keith Jarrett and Stravinsky to Deerhoof and the Beatles, as well as the films of David Lynch, the Dada movement and the literature of James Joyce. Winner of the 2014 European Young Jazz Artist of the Year Award in Germany, the Elliot Galvin Trio released their début album Dreamland to rave reviews, with the Guardian calling it ''audaciously accomplished'' and BBC Radio 3 saying it was ''bold and progressive.'' Punch marks the trio's Edition Records début.

„He reminds me of the young Django Bates, and the impression Django made on me in the 1980s – great improv chops, strong character as a player and a composer, evident love of the jazz tradition without wanting to repeat the past, very English sense of humour. He’s the kind of artist you always want to stay tuned in to, because you know he’s going to keep on coming up with surprises.“ (John Fordham)

„With Punch Elliot Galvin has produced an even better album than his first, excellently iconoclastic recording, and whilst his compositions might initially appear challenging, they're actually quite brilliantly inventive, retaining the pianist's idiosyncratic style and wry sense of humour.“ (AllAboutJazz)
