“Soweto Kinch raps like a champion and plays like a dream.” – London Evening Standard
Who is Soweto Kinch? He is a Birmingham-raised, Oxford-educated saxophonist-composer and MC – considered one of the most exciting and versatile young musicians in both the British jazz and hip-hop scenes. His ability to unify such diverse influences as Charlie Parker, Madlib, Ornette Coleman, Stevie Wonder and Duke Ellington with high energy and polished style is bar none marked by a Mercury nomination, UMA awards, and MOBO awards. By the axe he outshines the likes of Wynton Marsalis, on the mic he collects props from the likes of KRS ONE and Mos Def. Four years following A Life in the Day of B19: Tales Of The Towerblock called, “the most convincing and accomplished unions of hip-hop and jazz to date” by Charles Waring, Soweto re-emerges on the international music scene with The New Emancipation (Soweto Kinch Records, 2010). Don’t miss his rare US performance at the Bride.
