Ubuntu Music is delighted to sign trombonist Dave Sear for the release of his album, I Always Thought My Thoughts Were Me!
Born in Luton, Dave started playing the trombone at the age of eight. He gained a place at the prestigious Royal Birmingham Conservatoire in 2012 and graduated with a First Class Degree (BMus Hons) in July 2016. He has been a freelance trombonist since, and in January 2021 Dave became an official artist for B.A.C trombones. In the spring of 2022, only six years after graduating, Dave joined the faculty at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire teaching jazz trombone.
I Always Thought My Thoughts Were Me is Dave’s first album. He explains the thinking behind the music:
“The music I’ve composed and arranged for my debut album was influenced by my lifelong journey with anxiety and OCD. During the Covid lockdown period I had a lot more time to think, and overthink, and it really dawned on me that so many people struggle with the same issues as me, even though I always used to think my thoughts were ‘normal’. This inspired me to write some music which therefore finally made me feel ready to release my debut album. I reflect on the harder aspects of living with these issues, as well as the positive, embracing good times and thanking many people/places that have been of significant help throughout. Jazz music has been a great friend and of continual support throughout the last decade of my life and I wanted to recognise that in this music too. I have combined completely original compositions, contrafacts on some relevant standards and two arrangements of tunes that were meaningful to me over the years. I’ve never been great with words, and I seem to make the most sense through the trombone, so this album is my acknowledgement of appreciation to the music, my friends, my family and to everyone who’s taken the time to listen to me.”
