ST. BARBE
​"Injecting their brand of jazz with a healthy shot of alternative rock, St. Barbe deliver a slick, fresh take on the genre that brings it straight into the twenty-first century." - Guitar Magazine
​​
"This band opened for us last night in London and they were unbelievable"​ - Dennis Chambers (Mike Stern Band, Santana, Steely Dan)​
Known for their progressive, genre-bending brand of jazz, St. Barbe is gearing up for the release of their second E.P Shoal later this year, featuring a collaboration with Mercury-shortlisted artist corto.alto.
Formed in 2021, St. Barbe released their self-produced EP Shapeless, earning placements on Spotify's editorial jazz playlists and a feature in Guitar Magazine.
They supported guitarist Mike Stern at London's Jazz Cafe in July 2022, followed by their own UK tour with performances in Manchester, Nottingham, and Bristol, and a debut at Cheltenham Jazz Festival. Since the subsequent release of singles ‘Tellicherry’ and ‘Noumena’, they have amassed over half a million streams, solidifying their growing reputation as a band whose impossible-to-pin-down sound is on a trajectory all of its own.
