About Me |
|
Welcome to Bill Bruford's official Myspace site. Bill's remarkable journey in music began in 1968 and continues to this day. A legend in rock music for his work with Yes and King Crimson and many more, his talents as a jazz musician and composer have been applauded through his work with great players such as Michiel Borstlap, Ralph Towner, Tim Garland, Chris Botti, Django Bates, Iain Ballamy and his Earthworks group in all its incarnations. No matter what style or genre he works in Bill's playing remains adventurous, ambitious and accessible. Please visit Bill’s website for more details about Bill's current activities. Earthworks DVD anthologies 1 & 2 released in 2007 are available. Check out Bill Bruford’s Earthworks DVD anthologies website and grab your signed copies now. Bill's new album with pianist and keyboard player Michiel Borstlap, In Two Minds, is now available directly from Bill's shop. |

The drummer’s compositions are designed upon thrusting progressive-rock motifs, whimsical melodies and knotty time signatures.” Jazz Review Available now Record Label: Summerfold Records / Winterfold Records Type of Label: Indie |
