Following the acclaimed Heartsong EP, his debut from 2015, and important experiences taking relevant roles in the work with artists like Alfa Mist, Tom Misch and Jas Kayser, Jamie Leeming presents his new LP via Sekito Records. Highly awaited, Resynthesis sees the guitarist creatively hitting his stride and exploring new sonic territories as he takes on the role of producer, after having established himself as one of the most sought-after young guitarists in the London jazz scene.

Resynthesis was created with the help of a handful of close friends, regular collaborators and some of the tightest young players around. Nathaniel Facey, Quinn Oulton and Laura Grooves are featured and lend their virtuosity to the album. Sonically, the album is mostly presented in the classic format of the jazz guitar trio (guitar, bass and drums), in which Jamie Leeming explores a vast array of ethereal, spacious and contemporary sounds. The songs featured on the album are led as much by tone and feeling as they are by traditional compositional structure or instrumental prowess, yet are expertly balanced with many moments that allow his lyrical style and razor-sharp chops as a guitarist to shine through.
