New album ‘Entity’ out now

 

‘Entity’, the magnificent new recording from Neil Cowley Trio, was released earlier this year on 20 September. It is three friends, reunited, giving their all to each other to reach one common goal, inspiring, conversing and metaphorically dancing together.

 


The band are now announcing their 2025 UK tour dates in support of their new album, which MOJO described as “a masterclass in tension and release where even the most reflective of songs conceal telling hooks”. The seven dates take place from late April through to early May across the UK, full dates listed below. Buy tickets here.

 


In 2017, pianist and composer Neil Cowley pressed pause. Over the course of 12 years and 6 critically lauded albums he had built an army of fans with accolades rolling in. Yet the Neil Cowley Trio went into hiatus. But after 7 years of solitary music making, it was time for him to return to the joy of human connection. For Cowley, there are no closer musical allies and brotherhood than his Neil Cowley Trio cohort, bassist Rex Horan and drummer Evan Jenkins.

 

Cowley’s ear for a killer melody, majestic rolling grooves, power hungry cadences and emotionally charged pieces remain. ‘Entity’ is a magnificent return to form for the Neil Cowley Trio. It is a mature, sophisticated album of uplifting melody and delicate beauty. It is about the inherent joy, comfort and rewards of human connection in our digital world and an ode to friendship.
