Jazz re:freshed presents
double bill: Ashley Henry + Jazz re:freshed Family Jam
Since 2003, Jazz re:freshed has been a renowned London-based, multi-faceted arts organisation and cultural institution. At the invitation of the Brussels Jazz Festival, they are curating the closing night, dedicated entirely to young British talent. For this double bill, they have chosen the warm, rich sounds of innovative pianist Ashley Henry who will present his new album Who We Are, the follow-up to the acclaimed Beautiful Vinyl Hunter (Album of the Year according to BBC 6 Music and Jazz Japan), where he masterfully blends jazz, hip-hop, and soul.
Plus a unique band specially assembled for the festival, the Jazz re:freshed Family Jam, led by keyboardist DoomCannon, bringing together an exceptional group of rising talents for a one-time performance. The lineup includes Benji Appiah on drums, Isobella Burnham on bass both coming up through the Steam Down collective, and saxophonists Kaidi Akinnibi (Blue Lab Beats, Black Midi) and Jazz re:freshed's newest signing Allexa Nava. Each artists is performing in their own right on this very special night to remember.
Flagey, Jazz re:freshed
