ALEX PAXTON

Composer. Jazz-trombonist.


“Really quirky, fun, dynamic…Wow! gives your senses a bit of shake. I tell you, I had to listen a number of times, absolutely terrific.”
James McDougall - BBC Radio 3
“In a dark, time this music will make you smile...antic experimentalism...manic contrast-heavy...This is the most joyous sound I’ve heard in ages!”
New York Times
“Paxton will Make your ears ping..brings brightly coloured, loopy joy to our ears..sweet energy & frantic humour...It’s jazzy & noisy & oddly serious.” The Guardian
”Turbulent and joyful...surfing on the crest of this exuberance is an extraordinary experience" – The Wire
“Paxton is a monster improviser …connects his garrulous attack to the most extroverted playing of George Lewis & Roswell Rudd..." Bandcamp Daily Best Contemporary Classical
