Event Summary:
UK Soul Jam captures the energy and musical talent from London's
Contemporary Soul Scene. Bringing together Singers, Players, movers
and shakers or just connoisseurs of Neo Soul, Nu Jazz, Credible Hip Hop and RnB, Brokenbeat, Bashment, Gospel and Soulful House scenes in London.
There is a Soul Revolution quietly going on in London right now - the talent is staggering, but with little or no outlets for this live music to manifest itself.
Two Soul organisations that have been incubating and nurturing this Nu Soul Movement are KEEP THE FAITH & SOUL LOUNGE.
Keep The Faith - as recommended by Time Out, OnWeekToLive Mag & Sista's UK Mag, Colourful Radio & Choice FM. Showcases the finest UK, USA and Global Eclectic Soul music including live performances from
London's newest Soul related music talents. KTF headed by Paul Aaaron represents the full range of SOUL music from Soulful RnB to Soulful House and Brokenbeats with live performances from new and acclaimed artists.
KTF's reputation has been built on breaking new Soul music as well as celebrating the less known Roots & offshoots of the music earning the night respect as a leader in specialist music and frequented by a
knowledgeable crowd who are passionate about their music.
Soul Lounge has ran a well respected Soul related open mic session in London for Singers, Musicians and spoken word artists. Supported by the in-house band Soul Liberation Funk headed By Marlon Conton. The
Jams Soul Lounge host are organic, gospel in essence and intense, most of the faces of London's Club Scene have stepped up on the Soul Lounge Mic at some point. The Jams encourage new talent while celebrating the
true unsung Soul craftsmen and women of London's Soul and Gospel scenes.
The two organisations already had some cross over of attendance and artists who performed on their nights in addition to attending each others events - the next step was a logical one KEEP THE FAITH & SOUL
LOUNGE presenting UK SOUL JAM a celebration of UK Soul in DJ, New Talent Showcase and Open Mic improvised live music Jams. The buzz is already growing on UK Soul Jam, be in the house for when that positive energy explodes on the Jazz Cafe stage.
