The April issue of Jazzwise features a fascinating cover story on iconic guitarist Bill Frisell ahead of his headline appearance at the Cheltenham Jazz Festival in May. Also in this issue is Jazzwise’s Mega-2026 UK & Europe Jazz Festival Guide, previewing the biggest and best jazz events across the British Isles and the continent for the year ahead.

There are also interviews with leading New York-based saxophonist Melissa Aldana as she releases her new Blue Note album, Filin; funky Geordie jazzers Knats give us the lowdown on their high-energy new album that celebrates the vibrancy of their Newcastle home; Val Wilmer takes us back to the 1970s to tell the story of forgotten vocal talent Marian Williams; and multi-reed master Shabaka discusses his new solo album, Of the Earth.

Elsewhere, there’s a Taking Off interview with vocalist Tina Carr, trumpeter Steve Waterman talks about his journey into music in The Player, and saxophonist Jasmine Myra selects the albums she can’t live without in Takes Five. All this, plus the UK’s biggest jazz reviews section, gig guide, live reviews, and jazz news… more jazz than you’ll ever hear!
