Malcolm Strachan is a Scottish trumpeter, composer and bandleader whose music moves between contemporary jazz, funk and soul. A sought-after musicians whose credits include Mark Ronson, Amy Winehouse, Jamiroquai and Corinne Bailey Rae, Strachan brings the same world-class musicianship to his own compositions. His latest album Look On The Brightside (May 2026) is his most groove-driven work yet, exploring funk, Motown and 1990s house, interpreted through acoustic jazz instrumentation. Don’t miss him live with his acclaimed band at Band on the Wall this August. Lineup: Malcolm Strachan – Trumpet/Flugelhorn / Atholl Ransome – Sax/Flute / Tom White – Trombone / George Cooper – Piano / Sam Quintana – Double Bass / Sam Bell – Percussion / Finn Booth – Drums
