EFG London Jazz Festival 2022

About

Book now for the thirtieth birthday of the EFG London Jazz Festival!
See the very best of jazz at Woolwich Works this November.

The EFG London Jazz Festival is the capital's biggest pan-city music festival, taking place annually in November, which has long been acclaimed for showcasing a heady mix of talent from around the world. Widely acknowledged for delivering world-class artists and emerging stars, the Festival continues to take jazz to a massive audience, in one of UK's landmark music events.

Programme: 
12th November      Rosie Frater-Taylor Big Band
Time: 7:30pm to 10:30pm
An exclusive one-off show for London Jazz Festival.

The 22-year-old singer, songwriter & guitarist Rosie Frater-Taylor will be performing her music with a full big band made up of some the best horn players in the country, alongside her usual rhythm section that's played over 40 shows in UK and EU this year.

With a clear sense of purpose, Rosie's music blurs the lines between jazz, folk, pop & soul. Think Joni Mitchell meets George Benson, Lewis Taylor teams up with Emily King or a female version of John Mayer!

13th November      Fergus Mc Creadie
Time: 7:30pm to 9:20pm
The 2022 Mercury Prize nominee joins Woolwich Works for his only London date this year.

Fergus McCreadie is one of the most exciting young jazz pianists on the world stage. With his unique blend of Jazz and Scottish folk music inspired by his country’s sublime landscapes, Fergus captures the hearts and minds of audiences worldwide.

17th November      Tara Cunningham + Maria Grapsa
Time: 8:00pm to 10:30pm 
Celebrate the 30th anniversary of the capital's biggest pan-city music festival at this concert showcasing two emerging stars of London's new jazz scene.

Tara Cunningham is an instrumentalist and composer based in London. Her work as a band member, collaborator and improviser has been described as having a "distinctive style that draws on both jazz and avant-rock... genuinely impressive" (Ian Mann - the Jazz Mann).

19th November      Ineza + Emily Jane Roberts
Time: 8:00pm to 10:30pm 
As a part of the EFG London Jazz Festival 2022, catch two of the finest emerging bands on the London jazz scene.

Ineza is a Rwandan-born Belgian jazz singer, now based in London. She graduated from the prestigious Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance and is now a rising talent on the London Jazz scene.

Her unique sound, powerful voice, excellent swing feel, smooth scat singing fuses jazz and its improvisational character with neo soul.

Her 2018 debut EP ‘Where Are You From?’ explored themes of identity, loss and healing, and was awarded a place among Bandcamp's best Soul albums.

Emily Jane Roberts is a young, up-and-coming jazz guitarist, composer and producer. Her debut EP 'The Persistence of Memory' combines a blend of shimmering guitar playing with bold ensemble and horn writing for the rest of her sextet.

She combines a love for straight-ahead jazz guitar players like Grant Green and Emily Renner with a taste for the contemporary soul/jazz sound, with Nubya Garcia and Hiatus Kaiyote providing good reference points for her fusion of styles.

Her music has been supported by Jazz Revelations and Tony Minvielle on Jazz FM and she was a semi-finalist of BBC Young Jazz Musician 2020.
