Those in the know are already excited about the rise of trumpeter Klara Devlin on the Birtish jazz scene.
A finalist in the BBC Young Jazz Musician of the Year 2024, Klara’s material draws inspiration mainly from the Bebop and Hard Bop eras, mixed with a soupcon of Funk and improv, while her influences span Freddie Hubbard, Lee Morgan, EllaFitzgerald, Herbie Hancock, Roy Hargrove, Chick Corea, and Wayne Shorter.
“Klara Devlin, remember her name, she is in my opinion one of the most amazing and unique new trumpet voices to emerge onto the UK jazz scene. To coin the famous quote ‘ifya ain’t got it in ya, ya can’t blow it out’. Klara Devlin definitely has it, and definitely blows it out of her horn! I’m about 2-3 jazz generations in front of her and I’ve never been this excited about a young musician in a while, definitely a stylist who’ll be making new waves for the next generation.” Tony Kofi, saxophonist
