Leeds Got Locked Down! Introducing Breeze Leeds latest music project

Leeds has a long history of artists and creatives from all over the city making waves. Young and old, musicians, magicians, circus performers, dancers, singers, sports people and the like are all over this brilliant city. One of the most exciting things about what Breeze brings to Leeds is watching whole generations of young people explore the city’s cultural landscape and try things out for themselves.

Who Is Xero Slingsby?

There will be many who remember Xero Slingsby; either in full flow with Selmer alto sax in the Adelphi, The Cardigan Arms, the Café Click Essen, the Café Damberd Ghent, or in passing; busking in the Leidesplein Amsterdam, or in Leeds, or in a string of other Northern Towns where he clocked up many arrests at a time when to play music on the streets was to break the cities bylaws.

Graphic Scores

Jacob Thompson-Bell is a composer and producer based in Leeds, U.K. He makes work combining visual imagery and musical performance, writes scores for contemporary classical ensembles, and creates electronic music and installations in galleries, concert halls and some more unusual public spaces. These days, he’s also spearheading a collaborative project called Fresh Yorkshire Aires.
