Welcome

'Going Home' is the second release from FGHR - Darryn Farrugia (drums), Leonard Grigoryan (guitar), Luke Howard (piano) and Ben Robertson (acoustic bass).  Following on from their debut release 'Stationary' (2007), 'Going Home' presents an all original program of song-based instrumentals with Brazilian and European jazz influences. 

 This is a new direction for the performers, who have excelled in a range of musical genres. It is textural rather than improvisational, emphasizing the synergies of group interplay over individual expression. Vocalist Emma Gilmartin, percussionist Alex Pertout and accordion player Anthony Schulz also appear on the album.

“The only downside to musical escapism this complete is the jar that comes with returning to reality.” – Beat Magazine
