Genre-defying duo to make debut performance at Liverpool’s Angel Field Festival

Two acclaimed musicians will come together for their first performance as a duo this weekend in Liverpool.

Angel Field Festival 2026 presents the debut performance from a new project featuring two unique voices in the North West’s musical landscape; guitarist Stuart McCallum (The Breath, Cinematic Orchestra) and saxophonist Daniel Thorne (Immix Ensemble).

Having previously collaborated in an ensemble setting, audiences can expect a mix of brand new music for this format, alongside reworkings of their respective solo material as the two explore their shared love for music that blurs and blends jazz, folk, ambient and classical elements.

Stuart McCallum is a genre-defying guitarist, composer, and producer whose music weaves together jazz, folk, ambient, and electronic textures. His solo performances of original material, alongside arrangements of old English folk songs, jazz standards and classical works are defined by spacious harmonic voicings, expressive use of reverb and delay, and melodic and virtuosic improvisation.

Daniel Thorne is a composer and saxophonist fascinated by the infinite shades of possibility that exist between the notions of acoustic and electronic, and composition and improvisation. Avant-garde, jazz, electronics, classical and noise come together, each occupying their own space while acquiescing with the whole.

Daniel & Stuart will perform for the first time as a duo on Sunday 19th April 2026 at The Capstone Theatre in Liverpool. Tickets are available now via the venue’s website.
