Crossjam is a daily music improvisation between Stevie J Jones and Jules Maxwell, recorded every lunchtime in their little workspace in Brockley Cross, London.
Jules and Stevie J grew up in a Northern Irish coastal town called Bangor and have known each other for 30 years. Between them, they have played with a host of bands and artists including Bryan Ferry, Dead Can Dance and AIR as well as creating soundtracks for shows at The Royal Opera House and Shakepeare’s Globe Theatre.
Crossjam is an opportunity for them to set aside their ongoing individual projects for about ten minutes each day and make some music with each other. The recordings are raw and unedited, so there are some moments of borderline cacophpny, but also some unexpected moments of subline beauty.
