Making their Grand Junction debut, the award-winning collective blends synth-rock, post-punk, jazz psychedelia, and Afghan folk into a border-defying sound.

Making their Grand Junction debut as part of the EFG London Jazz Festival, the multi-award-winning collective brings their blend synth-rock, post-punk, and jazz psychedelia with the rich textures of folk music from Afghanistan, creating a sound that transcends borders and genres

Praised by The Guardian as “one of the most intriguing new bands of the year,” Kefaya followed the success of their debut album Radio International by collaborating with Hazara folk singer Elaha Soroor on their acclaimed 2019 album Songs of Our Mothers (Bella Union); a bold reframing of women’s songs from Afghanistan, that earned global tours and recognition. Their collaboration continues, and this special performance will be a glimpse of their highly anticipated forthcoming album.

The evening is presented by Arts Canteen in collaboration with Grand Junction as part of EFG London Jazz Festival 2025
