Daryl Runswick

**Daryl Runswick** is a British composer, jazz musician, and bassist whose genre-blending career spans contemporary classical, jazz, and library music. A key figure in the UK’s jazz scene since the 1970s, he’s known for collaborations with legends like John Dankworth and Cleo Laine, while his solo work—from the introspective *Headlong, Heartlong: Compositions in Lockdown* to the lively *Late Jazz*—showcases his knack for balancing experimental flair with melodic warmth. Whether crafting string orchestra pieces for the *KPM 1000 Series* or diving into improvisation on *The Jazz Years (Live)*, Runswick’s music feels both timeless and refreshingly inventive. His recent releases, like the cheekily titled *Disco Fever* and the contemplative *The Eternal Song*, prove he’s still pushing boundaries decades into his career.
