‘Courageously uncompromising jazz that delights.’
Venue Magazine.

Blending lush harmonies, infectious grooves and an intelligently unusual repertoire with Emily Wright’s rich vocalization, flawless alto range and wordless vocal soloing, Moonlight Saving Time is one of today’s most riveting, refreshingly original jazz ensembles.

And with cinematic, flowing arrangements drifting seamlessly into moments of free improvisation, and unusual time signatures sitting alongside hip hop and Latin grooves, MST creates a satisfyingly contemporary sound.

‘Wright’s voice is a lovely jazz instrument, accurate and flexible.’ London Jazz Magazine

‘An amazing vocalist, one of the rare few who step beyond singing jazz songs jazzily to use their voices as instrument in a jazz combo who (equally rarely) know how to discipline their instrumental playing to make the most of her jazziness.’ Venue Magazine
