In our fast-moving world it can be hard to find something that has matured and developed over time. Interplay is a band that has taken that time, reaching its state of evolution through a journey of ten years. Interplay brings together the talents and experience of five fine musicians, fuelled by diverse musical influences, and focussed on performing original material to make it their own. Mainly penned by bassist Adrian Litvinoff, the tunes provide hugely varied settings for the band’s invention and spontaneity.

Alan Wakeman, (saxes, flute), and Richard Baker (trombone) form a poised front line. Embracing very different styles they have evolved a close musical understanding. Neil Hunter (keyboard), Adrian Litvinoff (basses) and Dave Balen (drums, percussion) weave together all kinds of dynamics - assertive, fluid, spacious and energetic, as the music requires.

In recent years Interplay has hosted memorable concerts with guest artists including Claude Deppa, John Etheridge, Norma Winstone and Annie Whitehead. Gilles Peterson called their second album Global “a beautiful record”.
