The Peasant Poet - Album Feat. Seth Bye
Poet John Clare (also known as ’The Northamptonshire Peasant Poet’) is known for his celebration of the english countryside and his incredible insight to the human condition. As biographer Jonathan Bate wrote “[he was] the greatest labouring-class poet that England has ever produced. No one has ever written more powerfully of nature. of a rural childhood, and of the alienated and unstable self" A collaboration between the Birmingham based Patrick Lester-Rourke and Seth Bye; The Peasant Poet explores the identity of John Clare through reimagining a selection of his poems. The poems are re-imagined through the lens of free improvisation and electronics, resulting in a varied and thought provoking album. Released August 6 2019

A zero-sum game is a mathematical representation of a situation in which each participant's gain or loss is exactly balanced by the losses or gains of the other participants A collaboration between the Birmingham based Patrick Lester-Rourke and Lee Griffiths, Zero Sum explores the sacrifice of those lost in the First World War through free improvisation, loops and electronics, to craft a varied and thought provoking album. The album draws influence from the saxophonic inventiveness of Eric Dolphy and Paul Dunmall, as well as the groundbreaking electro-acoustic compositions of Karlheinz Stockhausen. credits Released December 14 2018
Identity - Debut Album
Identity - Debut Album
The idea for IDENTITY was sparked when I first listened to the famous Jazz-Fusion album ‘Bitches Brew’. Its unique combination of Miles Davis’ musical interests (at the time) make it a fascinating re-imagining of his musical identity. ‘Bitches Brew’ made me realise the possibilities presented in Fusion and Aleatoric music, leading me to compose the album you now hold in your hands. With IDENTITY I chose to reconcile my love of World, Rock, Jazz, Folk and Contemporary Classical music into a single entity. The result is a distillation of all the influences I have garnered throughout my life, and for the first time, I can say that the music on this album is truly representative of me. Released April 10 2017
