"Empirical is the most exciting jazz band to come out of the UK."
Courtney Pine

"This is a fantastic debut that everyone needs to hear."
The Independent on Sunday

"Empirical could turn out to be one of the most important bands in UK jazz history. British album of the year!"
Jazzwise

Jay Phelps(trumpet/voice), Nathaniel Facey (alto sax/voice), Kit Downes (acoustic piano), Tom Farmer (double bass), and Shane Forbes (drums/percussion) perform with astonishing musical maturity, confidence and a cohesiveness derived from many years of playing together. Empirical is dedicated to maintaining the roots of traditional modern jazz but has a definite finger on the pulse of the contemporary world. Style-wise: think Ornette Coleman meets Wayne Shorter meets John Coltrane meets Ali Farka Toure meets Steve Coleman - performed with an abundance of youthful energy.
