About:
Jonah Phillips is an active London-based drummer, bandleader and arranger who performs on stages across the UK and internationally. With a background in fine art and film, Jonah is a recent graduate of the Guildhall School of Music & Drama. His work is influenced by the jazz tradition, fused with his interest in alternative songwriting, indie, post-punk, folk and electronica.
For the final instalment of this year’s Vortex ‘Whirlpool’ series, Jonah debuts a unique group exploring riff-driven grooves and ambient textures, featuring arrangements by some of his favourite composers and songwriters. Inspiration is drawn from Paul Motian and Bill Frisell to David Bowie and Cameron Winter.
