Oskar Jones is an award-winning composer, saxophonist and pianist, and a first-class 2025 graduate of the prestigious Guildhall School of Music and Drama’s Jazz Performance Masters, where he spent two years honing his saxophone and improvisational skills under the guidance of leading UK jazz musicians and composers Trish Clowes, Jean Toussaint, Iain Ballamy, and Mark Lockheart, among others, and for which he was a receiver of the 2024 Help Musicians Postgraduate Award. Described by GSMD as “fresh, contemporary jazz talent” at his most recent performance at the 2025 EFG London Jazz Festival, Oskar’s music seeps deep below superficiality and expresses change, honesty, and authenticity through pellucid, lyrical melodies and fierce grooves. Earlier in 2025 he hosted sold out shows with his new quintet at Next Door Records, Oxford House, and the Chelsea Physic Garden, and was also one of ten musicians from London conservatoires selected to be part of the London Transport Museum’s “Transported by Culture” programme. Prior to this, Oskar graduated from The Reid School of Music at The University of Edinburgh in 2023 with a first-class with honours degree, as well being awarded the Andrew Grant Bequest Prize for Portfolio of Compositions, and the Bucher-Fraser Scholarship.
