Part of Africa Oyé’s 30th anniversary celebrations, this unique and captivating collaboration brings together a dream line-up from Jamaica and Cuba, exploring the musical output of these two Caribbean islands.
The project – returning to the UK after a stunning performance at the BBC Proms – honours both islands’ incredible musical foundations and legacies, melding Jamaican soundsystem and bass culture with Cuba’s electrifying and virtuosic Afro-Cuban and jazz traditions to create something entirely new.
Produced by leading reggae and dancehall producer and accomplished pianist, DJ Mista Savona – the ‘supergroup’ includes some of Cuba and Jamaica’s most influential musicians. Havana Meets Kingston sees this incredible team of musicians come together to bend and twist genres effortlessly.
