ABOUT MALCOM BRUCE

Composer, singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Malcolm Bruce has toured, recorded with and appeared on records with some of the biggest names in music including Little Richard, Elton John, Eric Clapton, Ginger Baker, Dr John, Joe Satriani, Joe Bonamassa, Bill Ward and Ozzy Osbourne (Black Sabbath), Tony Butler and Mark Brzezicki (Big Country) and his father the late Jack Bruce of Cream.

Malcolm curated a tribute to his father in October 2016 alongside Pete Brown (Cream lyricist) at O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire with performances by legends such as Lulu, Eddi Reader, Maggie Reilly, Paul Young, Mick Taylor (Rolling Stones), Dennis Chambers (Santana, Parliament / Funkadelic), Gary Husband (Level 42, John McLaughlin) and Ginger Baker (Cream).

He released his album ‘Salvation’ in 2017, a collection of 10 songs recorded at Kevin McKendree’s (Delbert McClinton, Brian Setzer) The Rock House Studio in Franklin TN and mixed by Steve Orchard (Paul McCartney, Chris Cornell) and toured the UK and USA in support.

Between 2017 and 2019 Malcolm played around 100 shows the UK, US, Australia and New Zealand with ‘The Music of Cream’, a tribute to his father’s band, featuring special guests Glenn Hughes (Deep Purple, Black Sabbath) and Robben Ford (Miles Davis, Joni Mitchell).

He’s currently finishing a 4 song EP and also a jazz project with Chester Thompson (Genesis, Phil Collins, Frank Zappa, Weather Report) and bassist Jeff Berlin. Work begins later this year on his next album. His first opera ‘King You’s Folly’ is slated to premiere at Sadler’s Well’s in 2021.

His shows are at once epic and intimate, with a unique approach to song structure and form. His guitar playing is explorative, expressive and passionate. He is fast emerging as a truly original artist on the international scene.
