The summer is festival season in Edinburgh, and Edinburgh Jazz & Blues returns throughout the city for ten days in July with more than 120 events. For those who can't make it to Edinburgh, some concerts will be livestreamed, and some specially recorded gigs will be available online.
The Festival has built a strong relationship with trumpeter Laura Jurd, who curates a programme of gigs under the banner 'From Folk To Freedom,' featuring a premiere of her music and highlights like Zoetic and Norman Willmore Sextet.
Key events include BBC Scotland Young Jazz Musician 2023 Ben Shankland's performance with his trio and additional musicians, Fergus McCreadie Octet's return, and the collaboration between Fergus McCreadie Trio and Manchester Collective.
EJBF has commissioned new music from Colin Steele Quartet, showcasing diverse musical projects beyond traditional jazz interpretations.
