Piano Trio Series: Finn Carter

Pianist and composer Finn Carter leads a trio featuring some of London’s most exciting emerging musicians. United by a shared approach to improvisation that prioritises the music over ego, the group draws on a deep understanding of the jazz tradition to explore new musical territory every time they play. Carter’s compositions blend jazz, soul, hip hop and free music, creating works that are both personal and accessible. Since their formation in late 2021, the trio has built a reputation for compelling live shows, including performances at Ronnie Scott’s, Brick Lane Jazz Festival, and Jern og Metall Festival in Norway. Their debut album, Hymn For My Dad, was released in September 2024 to critical acclaim and supported by a sold-out UK tour.
