Polar Bear Special

Jez Nelson hosts a one hour special in conversation with genre-bending jazz crew Polar Bear. This live audience Q&A was recorded at London’s Brilliant Corners venue in Dalston to celebrate the Edition Records double re-release of Polar Bear albums Dim Lit (2004) and Held On The Tips Of Fingers (2005), each on vinyl for the very first time.

Jez is joined by drummer, band leader and composer Sebastian Rochford, saxophonists Pete Wareham and Mark Lockheart, double bassist Tom Herbert and soundscaper and electronics wiz Leafcutter John in an engaging conversation about the events and forces that shaped their groundbreaking music and manifested a Mercury Music Prize nomination.
