CHRISTIAN MCBRIDE’S NEW JAWN // KANDACE SPRINGS

The new discovery of Blue Note, Kandace Springs will be on the stage of Sultan Park on a warm summer night with her mesmerising vocals and amusing songs that bring soul, jazz and pop together. Taking inspiration from diva singers like Sade, Ella Fitzgerald, Lauryn Hill, Billie Holiday, Nina Simone, and Erykah Badu, the young musician will be followed on stage by the new project of the American jazz bassist Christian McBride, New Jawn Quartet with their modern jazz explorations. Considered among the most productive of his generation of jazz musicians with over 300 records, McBride has proved his virtuosity with five Grammy awards he had received. Having collaborated with pop and rock stars like Sting, Paul McCartney and Celine Dion along with jazz masters like Herbie Hancock, Diana Krall, and Chick Corea, McBride leads five different jazz ensembles including a Big Band with its 18 members.
