Repped by Gilles Peterson, RBMA, Sounds of The Universe and many more, rising mega-talent Emma-Jean Thackray wears many musical hats. As a composer, producer, multi-instrumentalist, singer, bandleader and DJ, she is just as at home working with the London Symphony Orchestra as she is hosting her show on Worldwide FM or tearing it up on trumpet with her quartet.

From her solo releases 'Ley Lines' on The Vinyl Factory and acclaimed 'Walrus' EP, she maintains her trajectory as one of the most talented young musicians in the jazz scene.

Her stream performance is an exclusive set featuring tracks from the releases of Um Yang, Rain Dance EP, her recent Blue Note reimagined track and a rework of the Chicago-house-classic Brighter Days from Cajmere & Dajae

Filmed at Total Refreshment Centre.

"Emma-Jean is a musical powerhouse, and as anyone who's seen her live will attest, this is not to be missed. One piece of advice, wherever you're watching, make sure you've got space to dance"
