Composer and saxophonist Binker Golding is one of the most exciting musicians at the heart of the UK's jazz revolution and one-half of the multi-award winning duo "Binker & Moses".

With his new album release (Gearbox Records, 2022) titled “Dream Like A Dogwood Wild Boy”, Binker Golding moves towards a new sound that incorporates elements of blues, heartland rock and Americana while remaining firmly rooted in the jazz idiom. The songs explore themes of manhood, father and son relationships, friendship, love and sex, reflection, drinking, escapism, death, masculinity, and resilience. His quintet features some of the UK’s most talented artists – pianist Sarah Tandy, guitarist Billy Adamson, double bass player Daniel Casimir and drummer Sam Jones.
