A modest amount of trombone poetry peppered an evening with ruM at The Old Fountain. Mike Walter manhandled the melodeon or let fly with his soprano sax. There were new tunes, such as March March and This One, and face-to-face free improvisations. Gabriel Keen, our guest, blessed the upright piano.
In another raid on Broadstairs, the following weekend, ruM played a wordless half hour of tunes and improvisations in a large garden shed for a real ale and folk party.
A good month for ruM, with admittedly little trombone poetry, but July will be different.
