Tomorrow’s Warriors presents the Ky Osborne Quartet as part of the EFG London jazz Festival 2024.
Ky Osborne is a 19-year-old jazz pianist and composer studying at Trinity Laban Conservatoire. From his roots in Senegalese Mande music to his fascination with modern hip hop, Ky approaches jazz from new angles.
His playing harkens back to greats such as Oscar Peterson and Ahmad Jamal with an outgoing, modern perspective.
Tomorrow’s Warriors’ talent development programme has helped nurture an astounding list of award-winning alumni including Nubya Garcia, Shabaka Hutchings, Ezra Collective, Moses Boyd, Binker Golding and a whole host more. At the heart of this incredible musical movement is the ethos of ‘each one, teach one’, with each generation sharing their time and supporting the musicians that follow in their footsteps. The creative results are nothing short of inspiring and intoxicating, as witnessed in the new Tomorrow’s Warriors album, I Am Warrior.
For over 30 years, Tomorrow’s Warriors has played a vital role within its community and the wider music industry and?has been?credited?with?literally changing?the face of?UK?jazz.
