Kaidi Akinnibi
Although his fluent and thoughtful playing is rooted in the classic jazz genres, growing up in South London and learning from the Kinetika Bloco and the Jazz Warriors families, saxophonist Kaidi Akinnibi has always had a multi-faceted outlook on music. This can be seen in the eclectic variety of artists he works and writes with, including the likes of Tom Misch, Black Midi, Blue Lab Beats & Celeste. The music tonight is, as he puts it, influenced by “early 90’s Shoegaze, Indie Jazz & Electronica”. Also featuring Jamal Wilson-piano/synths, Dan Collins-bass and Jack Robson-drums/electronics, this promises to be a fascinating night of contemporary music of the highest quality.
