Having spent the past few years playing gigs and residencies weekly across Leeds and the surrounding area, The Mabgate Organ Trio were faced with a problem when the UK national lockdown was introduced in March 2020. The trio decided to retreat to their own shared basement to record their first body of original music which they wrote, recorded and mixed all ‘From the Mabgate Basement’. The album explores and builds upon their wealth of musical knowledge and experience and showcases flavours from jazz, instrumental funk and blues.
