Rob Luft, recently crowned ‘Instrumentalist of the Year' at the 2025 Parliamentary Jazz Awards, is undeniably one of the most exciting jazz guitarists in Europe of his generation. Hailing from London, this award-winning 32-year-old virtuoso has garnered consistent comparisons to legends such as Bill Frisell, John Abercrombie & Pat Metheny.
His debut album, "Riser," released in 2017 on Edition Records, made an enormous impact on the domestic and international jazz scenes, and was selected by Downbeat Magazine as one of the finest albums of 2017. Winning the prestigious Kenny Wheeler Jazz Prize at The Royal Academy of Music propelled Luft's career, and at just 23 years old, he presented a collection of originals showcasing a remarkable instrumental sound and compositional voice that reflected his individuality.
His highly anticipated follow up album, "Dahab Days," showcased continuous artistic growth and musical exploration. Released on Edition Records in October 2023, the album marked another significant milestone in his career. Around this time, Luft's selection as a BBC New Generation Artist culminated with him being commissioned to compose a guitar concerto for performance at the 2023 London Jazz Festival with the BBC Concert Orchestra at the Queen Elizabeth Hall.
Recent collaborations with John Surman, Anders Jormin & Elina Duni on Manfred Eicher’s legendary German record label ECM Records have further solidified his reputation and expanded his reach throughout continental Europe. He has toured with many leading international jazz artists, to name a few: Aaron Parks, Avishai Cohen, Arild Andersen, Django Bates, Manu Katché & Ben Wendel,
"The most fully-realized and rewarding debut album from a guitarist-composer since Julian Lage's 2009 outing, Sounding Point” - Downbeat Magazine, USA
