Bristol based quartet taking their name from an Ornette Coleman composition. Straddling the boundaries of jazz and rock they have released four albums “All Is Yes” (2008)-winner of the BBC Jazz Awards Album Of The Year”, “Bugs In Amber” (2009), “OC DC” (2012) and “Lope and Antilope” (2014), each album representing a clear artistic progression.
The group features sometime Portishead members Jim Barr (bass) and Clive Deamer (drums) plus Jake McMurchie (saxophones) and Pete Judge (trumpet).
""A beguiling and kaleidoscopic experience". Guest contributor Trevor Bannister brings an initiate's fresh insight into the music of Get The Blessing."
LIVE
" A group that has established a signature sound but can’t help experimenting with its own identity, with consistently fascinating results."
ALBUM
"Their least classifiable album to date, certainly the most interesting, and arguably the best."
ALBUM
"GTB's most multi faceted album yet with a growing compositional maturity augmented by increasingly imaginative arrangements and a well judged smattering of electronic fairydust. "
ALBUM
"Loud, brash, irreverent and unfailingly entertaining, but more subtle than they are sometimes given credit for, GTB have developed a sound of their own and are a very welcome presence on the UK music "
LIVE
"Bright, consistently up-tempo music that doesn't fight shy of aggression"
ALBUM
"Their most mature work to date, a compelling recording rooted in improvisation, but making highly effective use of contemporary audio technology. "
