Mark Wade Trio - New Stages (2026)

New Stages by Mark Wade Trio marks not only a new album but a turning point in his creative evolution. It’s a moment where his past innovations meet his future ambitions. This is a collection of new, original jazz works inspired by treasured classical music that he has forged a deep personal connection to over the years and that he is delighted to now be bringing forward in this new format. Mark Wade is a modern composer with a global perspective, known for his virtuosic command of both acoustic and electric bass and for blending technical precision with emotional depth. His work defies easy classification, embracing the improvisational spirit of jazz while drawing inspiration from classical and contemporary influences. He will also perform four UK shows in March 2026.
