Jonny Mansfield on SoundBetter

Credits include Orlando Weeks, Chris Potter, Yazz Ahmed. I have composed, arranged, mixed, recorded within many genres. I studied at the Royal Academy of Music in London.

He has worked with respected musicians including Chris Potter, Orlando Weeks and Yazz Ahmed. He has toured worldwide and performed at major venues such as the Bimhaus, SXSW festival and the Royal Albert Hall.

Jonny was the recipient of the Tebbut Exhibition Award, Richard Turner Award, Scott Philbrick Jazz Scholarship and the Principal's Award from the Royal Academy of Music. In 2018, Jonny was awarded the Kenny Wheeler Jazz Prize and subsequently signed to Edition Records to release his album featuring Chris Potter, Gareth Lockrane and Kit Downes.

In August 2020, Jonny set himself the challenge to compose, record, mix and master a whole album in a day. The reason was to capture this strange unique time in music and reflect some of the feelings generated from lockdown.

As a composer, he was commissioned by Marsden Jazz Festival to write an hour-long suite setting Simon Armitage (Poet Laureate) poems. This was recorded for a BBC 3 Jazz Now broadcast and has subsequently been nominated for an Ivors Award - ‘Best Large Ensemble Jazz Composition’.
