'One of the most original ensembles in recent British Jazz' Jazzwise

MOBO award-winners Sons of Kemet will bring their mesmerising and unique brand of cutting edge Jazz to Battersea Arts Centre.

Hailing from the murky world of the London post-jazz scene with a distinctive street music feel, the group bears influence from the dynamic vibe of New Orleans music to the percussive intricacy of West African drum music with some Caribbean dub flavours thrown in for good measure.

Known for their earth-shaking and electrifying live performance, the band features four of the UK jazz scene's brightest stars who have recently been nominated for a UMA Award and also at Gilles Peterson's Worldwide Awards.
