Levent & Taylor

Levent & Taylor's unique sound incorporates elements of gypsy jazz, classical, latin and world music.

For this special Southend special Southend Jazz Festival performance, they will be putting on a musical carnival of original music peppered with some well-known covers guaranteed to get you moving with hot rhythms, lightning finger work and catchy melodies, transporting you around the 4 corners of the globe.

They will be performing with a mighty 6/7 piece band, with fantastic musicians yet to be announced.

Both inspired by various different artists, Levent & Taylor infuse their diverse musical backgrounds to create their sound.

They have two albums under their belt, one of which was a quirky instrumental acoustic guitar and piano album drawing influences from swing jazz, cartoon music, latin and classical music. The second featured electric guitars, piano, percussion, drums and bass, leaning more towards instrumental rock, whilst still retaining the jazz/latin/classical and world influences... The third is in the making!
