SUMMARY:Tomorrow's Warriors presents ANKORA

Meeting at the renowned music organisation Tomorrow’s Warriors\, these ambitious young musicians were selected to perform in the flagship development ensemble Tomorrow’s Warriors Frontline\, mentored by acclaimed drummer and composer\, Romarna Campbell. Ankora is the exciting new step that the ensemble is taking as they journey deeper into the London jazz scene. \nThe name ‘Ankora’ is derived from the Latin word for ‘anchor’ (ancora)\, a symbol of groundedness\, hope and a connection to roots\, a message that spreads through their repertoire of both originals and covers of powerful jazz tunes. The name links to an alternative meaning in Italian of ‘again’\, marking the momentum of their rebirth as they continue their musical and artistic journey. \nTheir influences include the legacies of Freddie Hubbard\, Herbie Hancock\, Joe Henderson and Wayne Shorter whilst branching out to the more contemporary mastery of Esperanza Spalding\, Geri Allen\, Jeff ‘Tain’ Watts and Kenny Kirkland. The ensemble takes inspiration from the spark and power of these jazz legends compositionally and stylistically. \nCollectively\, the members of ‘Ankora’ have already made their mark on the jazz scene through performances at a mix of festivals and venues including Love Supreme Jazz Festival\, We Out Here\, Dizzy’s Jazz Club (NYC)\, The Vortex\, Brick Lane Jazz Festival and The Jazz Café. Ready for more\, the unique\, powerful voice of this ensemble is excited to embrace the wonder and diversity of the jazz scene. \n*Lineup: Mali Sheard – Saxophone; Keira Chakraborty – Flute; Hannah Clifton – Trumpet; Klara Devlin – Trumpet; Miranda Radford – Drums; Tami Adebanjo – Guitar; Kezia Abuoma – Piano; Holly Reinhardt – Bass. * \nMore about Tomorrow’s Warriors \nFor over 30 years\, Tomorrow’s Warriors has played a vital role within its community and the wider music industry and has been credited with literally changing the face of UK jazz. Free access to Tomorrow’s Warriors artistic programme has proved crucial in nurturing the nascent talent and early careers of so many of the most exciting UK artists currently tearing up the international jazz scene including Mercury Prize 2023 recipients and BRIT Awards Best Group 2025 winners EZRA Collective\, Moses Boyd\, Nubya Garcia\, Shabaka Hutchings and Sons of Kemet\, ESKA\, Jason Yarde\, Denys Baptiste\, Robert Mitchell\, Soweto Kinch\, Shirley Tetteh\, Byron Wallen…the list goes on.\nTomorrow’s Warriors offers a pioneering\, free to access\, comprehensive programme of learning and training which champions and supports young Black and female talent and those who come from challenging circumstances that would be a barrier to accessing opportunities to pursue a music career. \n“Tomorrow’s Warriors occupies a unique and vital space in our cultural landscape. Their work in helping positively shape future generations is of critical importance especially with the tribulations we currently face. Please keep supporting – each one\, teach one!” Gilles Peterson \nKaramel – 4 Coburg Road\, London N22 6UJ. The Karamel vegan kitchen will be serving food until 9.30pm.

SUMMARY:Still Waters
DESCRIPTION:PART OF THE EFG LONDON JAZZ FESTIVAL \nDoors open 7pm\, music starts 8pm. \nHenry Lowther’s Still Waters was born out a long association and friendship\, going back forty years\, between Henry and bassist Dave Green.

SUMMARY:Maydan Ensemble of the North London Jazz Collective
DESCRIPTION:Doors open 7pm\, music from 8pm. \nThe Maydan Ensemble of the North London Jazz Collective is a quintet that blends modern jazz with Arabic\, Anatolian and Persian folk music. Having formed at the start of 2025\, they have wowed audiences\, selling out multiple venues across London\, including Palestine House and the Green Note\, as well as recently headlining Zeman Festival in Serbia. They are a fully international group comprising some of London’s busiest jazz musicians in a unique setting: – rising star Amena El Adb\, the Egyptian singer – acclaimed Irish-Iranian jazz guitarist Kourosh Kanani – one the finest Iranian folk musicians in London\, Parham Bahadoran on reeds (zurna\, duduk and clarinet) – Italian-English bassist and stalwart of the London jazz scene Lorenzo Morabito (Giacomo Smith\, Peter Horsfall\, Mark Kavuma etc); – Londoner Robbie Ellison (Steve Fishwick\, Frank Basile\, etc) on drums. \nThe group explores the intersection of jazz and a bricolage of Middle Eastern musical traditions from two perspectives: that of material from the jazz canon inspired by West Asia; and that of the group’s own jazz-flavoured arrangements and renditions of Arabic\, Anatolian and Persian folk tunes. \n’Maydan’ means ‘town square’ or ‘public meeting-place’. Originating in Farsi\, the word now finds usage in Arabic\, Turkish\, Urdu\, Georgian and Ukrainian. In taking this name\, the group recognises first and foremost that diverse musical traditions find commonality by their grounding in communal life and social practice\, while embracing the subversive political potential of music as a collective\, convivial act. \nAbout the North London Jazz Collective: The NLJC is a community of the UK’s finest jazz musicians who’s collective output explores all things from trad and gypsy jazz\, swing and bebop to more contemporary and experimental stylings. Our members play regularly at the UK’s top venues such as Ronnie Scotts\, Soho Pizza\, 606\, Vortex etc; at major festivals both in UK (eg. London Jazz Festival and Love Supreme Festival) as well as touring extensively in Europe and elsewhere. Members have received recognition such as BBC Young Jazz musician of the Year\, Arts Council Grants\, and other awards for performances and recordings. The Collective meets every Wednesday for the Brewhouse Session in Highbury\, where a different house band each week plays a set of curated material which is followed by\, what has become over the last year\, one of the most talked-about jam sessions in London.
