The Noveltones are an improvising chamber quartet based in Wellington, featuring the unexpected instrumentation of violin, soprano saxophone, bass clarinet and double bass. With a sound that is melodious, beguiling, and sometimes startling, the Noveltones fuse spontaneous improvisation with the lush sonorities of chamber music.
Featuring Blair Latham on bass clarinet (the Woods, Little Blast Orchestra), Tristan Carter on violin (the Troubles, Bazurka), Jasmine Lovell-Smith on soprano saxophone (Arthur Street Loft Orchestra), and Tom Callwood on double bass (the Phoenix Foundation, Melancholy Babes), the music of the Noveltones ranges from carefully designed sonic architecture to free-form textural explorations, combining their individual strengths as members of Wellington’s jazz, composition, experimental and world music scenes.
"An assembly of gifted equals, collectively shaping sound while expressing individual voices." - John Fenton, Jazzlocal32.com
