Theon Cross (GB)

Theon Cross is an award-winning tuba player and composer who not only redefines what can be done with his instrument but also transcends traditional genre conventions with his heady brew of low-end theory combined with strains of ‘free jazz, dub, hip-hop, soca, grime, and other sounds from the Afro Caribbean diaspora’. 2020 sees him following up his critically acclaimed 2019 debut album ‘Fyah’ with a new EP on which he will again push the sonic boundaries of his tuba by using the studio to turn it into a complete beat and melody making machine on which a range of vocalists and rappers will add their verses. 2020 also sees him continue to bring his exciting, genre-fluid live set around the world with his quartet – there is no substitute for experiencing their energy and visceral power.
