Deeper Cuts celebrates jazz-ish music - artists giving it a twist, fusing it with other gloriousness and pushing things forward. It’s a regular live night at the warm, welcoming Paper Dress Vintage in Hackney.

We return for our 2nd year at the EFG London Jazz Festival with São Paulo drummer and producer Naná Rizinni!

Glitchy and glorious, Naná’s new album EPIBLAST puts the Brazilian beat-master in a progressive electronic jazz setting.

Raw and rhythmic. Drums, sax and synths. She’ll rip the roof off our East London home.

Naná will be joined on the lineup by singer-songwriter and jazz-soul cornerstone Ria Moran! Ria will be playing a stripped back duo set with Lewis Moody on keys. Plus, curator Karl Bos on DJ duties - don't sleep on tickets for this one!

NANÁ RIZINNI

Born and raised in São Paulo, Naná’s journey began in the subversive music scene of South America’s biggest city. Over the past 20 years, she’s released four solo albums, toured with countless Brazilian greats and played around the world from Lollapaloza to SXSW to Primavera.

Naná jumped across the Atlantic in 2020, and has spent the past two years building her electronic jazz masterpiece EPIBLAST, with co-writer, producer and saxophonist Mark Cake - who will feature in her trio alongside modular synthesist and keys maestro Lazy H.

Raw, textural, driving. Somewhere in the realm of acts like The Comet Is Coming, corto.alto and Richard Spaven.

With support across BBC radio, The Quietus and beyond - and after acclaimed shows at The Vortex and Ronnie Scott’s - we’re delighted to have Naná grace the Paper Dress stage!

“I’ve absorbed influences for years, from Brazilian traditions to UK experimental jazz, and this album is the first time I’ve found a language that feels fully mine.”

RIA MORAN

A year on from her stunning debut album Cubico, we’re blessed to have vocalist Ria Moran kicking things off!

Born in Liverpool, the longtime London-based in-demand singer-songwriter has collaborations with Nubiyan Twist, Gotts Street Park and Daniel Casimir under her belt - plus a track on the Blue Note Re:imagined project, and support from BBC 6 Music, Worldwide FM and beyond.

Ria will be performing a stripped back duo set, accompanied by super-producer and Energy Exchange co-founder Lewis Moody on keys.
