Wayne Snow’s music exudes an enchanting, vibrant warmth.

Channelling the sounds of his Nigerian upbringing, Snow crafts a rich and sultry blend of sun-kissed soul and expansive jazz drawing on influences such as Fela Kuti and Sade alongside his love for Afrofuturism.

Since his relocation to Berlin in 2013, Snow has “become central to the city’s burgeoning future jazz and neo-soul scene” (XLR8R).

A frequent collaborator with producer Max Graef, Snow’s debut album ‘Freedom TV’ purveys a self-assured creative voice. His reflective new album ‘Figurine’ sees Snow further develop his artistic vision in his most personal work to date.

The event will now take place on Thu 24 Nov 22 All existing tickets for the event originally taking place on Tue 18 Jan 22 remain valid for the new date.

Support from

ZOOBERs

The brainchild of Dorian Childs-Prophet (Dundundun), Chris Langton (Snazzback) and Harriet Riley (Paraorchestra) – In their works, synthesizers and vibraphone mesh together in ‘Reich-style’ evolving patterns, over odd stacking rhythms. Their rich harmonic electronica contains shades of Messiaen and Ricardo Villalobos amongst improvisation and sharp angles.
