Rebecca Vasmant’s eight-piece Ensemble formed following the sell-out album With Love, From Glasgow, comprising of world-class Scottish musicians including Harry Weir on sax (corto.alto, AKU!, Graham Costello’s STRATA), Graham Costello on drums (corto.alto, AKU!, Graham Costello’s STRATA), as well as Amanda Whiting on harp (Jazzman Records/Gondwana). Through the ethereal, floating textures, the music tells a love story to Scotland, and the wonderful talents happening in the beautiful country.

With Love, From Glasgow received international acclaim and press, including Album Of The Week from Jazz Fm, BBC Radio 6, Worldwide FM and many more, as well as reaching the top ten position in the International Jazz Album Charts, and was sold out everywhere, in advance of the full Album being available for pre-listen.

Rebecca explains: “The tracks are very personal to me. They tell stories of life, of the thoughts that exist inside my head. I hope they resonate with those who hear them. The record is a jigsaw that brought us together as the catalyst in forming so many lifelong friendships.

"With Love, From Glasgow leads you by hidden byways to reveal some unexpected cityscapes that open up beguilingly for the careful listener, and repays frequent repeat visits"Jazzwise
"[The album] captures jazz’s core principles: freedom, collaboration and expression. But most of all, it captures the spiritual depths of Glasgow’s jazz scene. A loving testament to a richly cultural city."The Skinny
