A beautiful blend of Highlife and Jazz (KEXP/US). Jembaa Grove's second album sounds like an invitation to daydream and let go (Le Monde/FR).
Everyone is playing them! Gilles Peterson (BBC6 Music/UK). I love their music so much! Joe Kay (Soulection/US). Fantastic!... A great mix of Jazz, Soul and Highlife! Jamie Callum (BBC Radio 2/UK). Legendary Stuff!... Sounding Beautiful Cerys Matthews (BBC6 Music/UK). Truly a global phenomenon. An original and accomplished fusion (Songlines/UK). A celebration of Life (Schall/GER).
After garnering massive support from the international media world (KEXP, BBC6 Music, Gilles Peterson, Soulection, KCRW, FIP, and many more) off the back of their first two albums, Susuma and Ye Ankasa/We Ourselves, and selling out numerous shows across Europe with festival appearances at Supersonic Jazz (NL), JazzOnze+ (CH), London Jazz Festival (UK), and many more, Jembaa Groove embarked on their 2025 tour with a fresh line-up and brand new songs set to release in Fall 2025.
On their newest undertaking, Jembaa Groove are strengthening ties to Lagos and London's vibrant Afro-Fusion scenes. Joining forces with premium highlifers The Cavemen (NIG), the band got together for another contemporary take on Highlife, Jazz, and Afrobeats, also featuring legendary Malian singer Fatoumata Diawara and Nigerian vocal sensation Tim Lyre.
The new wave of Afro-Jazz is flourishing around the globe, and Jembaa Groove is on the way to becoming one of the most important ambassadors of this aspiring genre. The newest additions to the line-up include two highly acclaimed members of the European jazz scene who are successful bandleaders themselves: Szabolcs bse Bognar (HUN) on keys and Peter Somuah (GHA) on trumpet will join the band on their upcoming world tour, which will take them through Europe, the UK, the US, and South Africa.
