Hi folks,

While the CLF Art Lounge (the home of Grass Roots) is still waiting to officially reopen its doors at its new Peckham location, we're taking the show on the road and temporarily setting up camp at Karamel in North London.

For the month of August, we proudly present a young saxophonist, bassist and bandleader called William Wood 🎷🎻. While hailing from Sevenoaks in Kent, William was raised in various corners of the world. Having completed his musical education in Michigan, he returned to these shores to become a bonafide member of London's burgeoning jazz community.

Besides his own projects, William currently forms part of the LUKAS-award winning Roberto Pla Latin Ensemble. On the night, he'll bring together an assortment of highly skilled friends to share a diverse range of artistic influences. Prepare to be dazzled, delighted and downright enchanted by a relatively new name on the scene.

For the month of September, we'll warmly welcome to the stage tenor saxophonist and BBC Young Jazz Musician Of The Year 2024 finalist George Johnson 🎷. Alongside his quartet, he'll be stirring up a captivating concoction of original material and reworkings of his most cherished compositions.

Drawing from his jazz roots and groove sensibilities, his multi-faceted repertoire also comprises Latin, soul, art rock and hip-hop. George's stellar supporting cast includes Kai MacRae 🥁 on drums, Scottie Thompson 🎹 on keys and Zaki Osahn 🎻 on double bass. Expect to be entertained by a youthful jazz outfit with a really rounded and mature sound.

Savour the summer vibes, stay cool and support emerging London-based jazz talent by stopping by Karamel! 🙂

Best,

Goobi (a.k.a Mr Boogie)
