Biography

Portico Quartet, a London-based jazz ensemble whose distinctive feature is the use of the hang (a bell-shaped metal percussion instrument) on its debut album Knee-Deep In The North Sea (2007), is made up of musicians Jack Wylie (saxophone), Milo Fitzpatrick (double bass), Duncan Bellamy (drums) and Nick Mulvey (percussion). The quartet, signed to the Real World label, regularly releases a series of adventurous albums, somewhere between jazz, world and electro, to critical acclaim: Isla (2010) and Portico Quartet (2012) are followed by the double live album Live/Remix (2013) and Living Fields (2015), recorded as a trio under the Portico name, after the successive departures of Nick Mulvey (2011) and Keir Vine (2014). The band reverted to its original name for the following album Art in the Age of Automation (2017).
