Josh Milan Live @ Jazz Cafe – Saturday 12th August

Posted on by

Catch Matt and Jamesey at the famous Jazz Cafe in Camden on Saturday 12th August as they warm up the dance floor before Josh Milan hits the stage!

After an electrifying sold-out show in 2019  which Makin Moves was involved in, Josh Milan’s long-awaited return to the jazz cafe takes place this August for what will be an unmissable showcase covering three decades of music.

With ties to gospel music, the Grammy Award-nominated multi-instrumentalist, producer, and CEO of Honeycomb Music tackles each project with a level of spirituality and inventiveness uncommon in modern music.

Josh’s phenomenal “Shapes, Color and Magic” EP, 2021, explores some of the most innovative jazz and dance music rhythms ever released on the label. In this latest project, Milan pushes the boundaries and challenges our beliefs around danceable jazz music. As with his “6.9.69” LP, this EP is very jazz influenced, improvisational and timeless.

As you can imagine tickets have been selling fast so grab yours today!
General tickets are priced at £25 or if you want to eat in the restaurant its £35 - https://thejazzcafelondon.com/event/josh-milan-2/
