There are at least two Huw’s:
1.Huw are brothers Aaron and Mike Dolton.
Both were students at the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts, where they learnt their trade from some of the world’s greatest artists. After leaving Liverpool, Aaron’s first residency saw him supporting the biggest names in UK Hip Hop, followed by countless studio sessions, and playing clubs and festivals with Leed’s regulars ‘The Sound of the Baskervilles’. Meanwhile, Mike kept the groove for Blues and Jazz artists in studios and venues across the UK and further afield in Japan.
Performing and recording for the first time together as HUW, the last project saw them taking on the best grooves from labels like Blue Note, Stax and Verve, mashing them together in a frantic live DJ set with added instruments, loops and open improvisation on stage.
Their new EP, available soon, sees an all original set created with drums, keys, guitars, sax and live electronics in the mix. Never short on talent, the music is as eclectic and varied as the instruments used to create it. Fusions of Nu Jazz, Electro Funk, Hip Hop and even Prog Rock are blended together to keep you chilled out, dancing and smiling in equal measures.
A two man band that has to be seen and heard to be believed.
2. Australian Comedian ‘Huw’ - One of these huw’s made a christmas album. it was released in July as the “quintessential sounds of September”.
