With her acclaimed 2021 debut ‘Yellow’, Yorkshire’s Emma-Jean Thackray unveiled a dancefloor-adjacent take on jazz that was addictive and endlessly inviting, with The Observer labelling the musical polymath (Thackray is a singer, trumpeter, DJ, beatmaker and more) “a supernova”.
Returning with the loose-limbed, insatiable groove of Reggie Watts-featuring ‘Black Hole’ – her first new music since that record – Thackray’s second chapter looks set to be even more uplifting.

“I first saw Emma-Jean Thackray opening for Marcus Miller in 2019 and I’ve been a fan ever since. A multi-instrumentalist that will have you mesmerized by her talents. So, don’t miss the chance to see her perform tracks from her Mercury Prize shortlisted album ‘Weirdo’ live on stage!”
