Forward Thinker is the sophomore LP from Glasgow-based jazz ensemble Nimbus Sextet. Led by Joe Nicholls, the band emerged in 2020 with their debut, Dreams Fulfilled, and a series of remixes and singles on Acid Jazz, established them as one of the most exciting jazz groups in the UK. An exuberant, innovative and uplifting second effort, the band emerges from the turbulence of the last couple of years, with a positive message and buoyant outlook.
