INTERLUDE marks a rare focus upon largely straight-ahead jazz and a return to interpretation from an artist who has made a habit of bending genres, writing original material and bringing new sounds and new listeners to the music. Produced, Engineered & Mixed by Benedic Lamdin for Nostalgia 77 and featuring guest spots from Laura Mvula and Gregory Porter, the album repertoire choices were inspired by the music and musicians he s featured on his award-winning UK jazz radio show over the last few years and his own crate digging tendencies, the album s fifteen tracks (including 3 bonus tracks for US release) avoid cliché with a fistful of less obvious jewels from the American songbook along with a couple modern surprises. To get where you want to go, sometimes you have to go back to where it all started, explains Cullum. Interlude is a celebration of my love of jazz that I get to revisit every week on my radio show. Through it, I have connected with some of the most talented musicians on the scene. This is a collaboration with them. Recorded in the original way live, in one large room, straight to analogue tape, in single takes.
