Marcus Gilmore will perform at the Queen Elizabeth Hall in London on July 4th, 2026. Gilmore is a highly regarded drummer and composer known for his innovative approach to jazz, blending elements of acoustic drumming with electronic music production and processing. His style frequently incorporates complex polyrhythms, textural soundscapes, and improvisation, drawing influence from both the tradition of post-bop drumming and contemporary electronic dance music. He has collaborated with artists across a wide spectrum of genres, including Robert Glasper, Vijay Iyer, and Gretchen Parlato.

The Queen Elizabeth Hall is a prominent concert venue located on the South Bank of the River Thames. Opened in 1967 as part of the Southbank Centre, it is recognised for its modernist architectural design by Hubert Bennett and Llewelyn Davies. Primarily designed for classical music performances, it also hosts a diverse range of events including contemporary music, dance, and spoken word. The hall’s acoustics have been subject to ongoing refinement since its opening; significant renovations were completed in 2018 to improve sound quality and audience facilities while respecting the building’s original character. It is a Grade II listed building, acknowledging its architectural and cultural significance.
