This week Chris is joined by the wonderful Daniel Casimir: bassist, composer, producer and all round lovely person. There's a reason every one wants him in their band!

We chat about his journey, his latest compositions (watch out for the new album later in 2021) and working with the current cream of the crop across the London jazz scene.

He plays a blinder in adding a surprise musician to our ever dreamy house band, and doubles down on Wayne Shorter album recommendations:

The Soothsayer by Wayne Shorter (1965) released on Blue Note

JuJu by Wayne Shorter (1999) released on EMI

Notes with Attachment by Pino Palladino and Blake Mills (2021) released on Blake Mills Label JV
