Marek Bura
Blurring the lines between prog rock, jazz improvisation, ambient, and classical.
Marek Bura is a composer, band leader and guitarist who thrives on the edges of jazz and rock, shaping dynamic soundscapes and creative, innovative guitar tones by experimenting with sound and combining it with jazz elements of improvisation.
His 2025 album fuses jazz, rock & futuristic guitar synthesis, featuring Tomasz Bura, Jamie Murray & Euan Leslie.
Forged in London's jazz scene from a very young age and over decades of experience, he has performed with Yolanda Charles (Eric Clapton, BB King), members of Incognito, and members of Sister Sledge, and has performed in many venues such as Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club, Barbican Theatre, and UK major festivals. He works all around London as a session musician, as well as focusing on his own music.
Not just a guitarist, an architect of sound, shaping jazz into something cinematic, electric, and untamed.
“Beautiful playing with time, plays great behind the beat, has great phrasing and great musical roots. Not a typical shredder despite having fabulous technique.”Adam Fulara · Guitarist Magazine
