Music

GBH Jazz Nights welcomes pianist, composer, and poet David Leach alongside saxophonist Lihi Haruvi, drummer Dor Herskovits, and bassist John Lockwood for a set of Leach’s original compositions. Rooted in the Jazz and Creative music tradition, Leach’s music draws on eclectic influences ranging from 20th-century classical, American Folk, and Progressive Metal, inviting listeners into a soundscape that is at turns intimate and exhilarating, yet always deeply felt and open to the present moment. The band can also be heard on David’s debut album, The Ground That Holds You as You Fall Forever, on Adhyâropa Records (2025).
