Last year, one of my favourite live music venues in the world, Jazz Cafe, announced it's first ever music festival!
The festival, held in the sizeable Burgess Park, was an unmitigated success with a diverse lineup across four stages and it was only a matter of time before the second iteration was announced and here we are!
The festival returns to Burgess Park and will be headlined by Masego, the multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter known for his high energy performances, genre-bending style and of course, his iconic sax. Sharing the stage will be Elmiene, Colombian groove sensation Balthvs, Nectar Woode, Amy Gadiaga, Don West and more.
For those who like a bit of underground Hip Hop, you won't be disappointed with Griselda duo Westside Gunn and Benny the Butcher also in attendance for what is sure to be an epic festival, bringing together a melting pot of fantastic musical and cultural styles as anyone who has visited Jazz Cafe should know to expect.
