Saxophonist Sean Khan premieres his new project The Modern Jazz and Folk Ensemble (MJAFE) at the EFG London Jazz Festival at the Grand Junction, Paddington with very special guest The Pentangle’s Jacqui McShee and rising stars Rosie Frater Taylor and Kindelan.
The Modern Jazz and Folk Ensemble (MJAFE) brings together British Folk and Jazz musicians, established and emerging, to celebrate songs from the classic era of British folk music that includes Nick Drake, Sandy Denny, Fairport Convention, John Martyn and Pentangle.
The iconic Acid Jazz Records will be releasing the first MJAFE album in the Spring of 2024. As a taster they are releasing the first single from the album in October 2023 – Light Flight, a Pentangle track re-versioned by Jacqui McShee with an extra jazz flavour.
