After her fantastic performance at Super-Sonic Jazz Festival 2019 in Paradiso, Nubya Garcia returns to Amsterdam on February 18 for a show in Paradiso. Tenor saxophonist Nubya Garcia is one of the standard bearers of England’s vibrant contemporary jazz scene. As a child of Caribbean parents, raised in a creative environment in multicultural London, she was introduced early to genres such as gospel, soul and Latin and the styles so typical of England such as grime, garage and dub. You can hear all these influences in her special compositions, danceable live shows and her choice of music in DJ sets and on the radio, because in addition to being a musician, Garcia is also a resident on the leading NTS radio.
 
Garcia’s second album Odyssey, due out in September 2024 via Concord Jazz, is an impressive mix of orchestral arrangements with R&B, jazz, broken beat and dub. The result is a grand and layered album that feels light and dreamy, without losing the groove. It is a personal project in which she shows her renewed love for composing music over the past four years.
