Band on the Wall, 18 Mar 2026
Honing his craft in Bristol’s bustling music scene, Californian-born multi-instrumentalist and producer Oli Morris has a unique sound, described as punchy and upbeat, bringing together many different aspects of jazz, and with some serious soul.
Oli Morris’s music comes with a purpose inspired by his early Californian roots. Nostalgia-tinged, beautiful and unrelenting, his releases include some of the best musicians of Bristol’s jazz scene (Snazzback, Rwkus, Bristol Lockdown Big Band).
Oli featured on Emeli Sandé’s album Let’s Say for Instance, opening the track Summer with his clear and delicate saxophone sound. After a successful tour and release of his debut EP A Brief Return to Solitude, which gained widespread attention across the UK music scene and support from BBC Radio 6 Music and Jazz FM, Oli has solidified himself as one of the most exciting up-and-coming artists on the UK Jazz Scene.
Expect a unique blend of jazz and soul influences, emotive melodies and energetic grooves throughout.
