Well known for his work with afrobeat band United Vibrations, as one half
of the electrifying jazz duo Yussef Kamaal and his hugely successful collaborative album with Tom Misch, Yussef Dayes is set to take Kiwis in Auckland and Wellington on two genre-bending journeys this June.
Expect a rapid-fire live show from
one of the UK’s most exciting and innovative young producers. Yussef incorporates grime and hip hop with Senegalese percussion and contemporary jazz to deliver a truly unique concert experience.
Yussef Kamaal emerged in 2015 as a partnership
between Yussef Dayes and fellow Londoner Kamaal Williams, and their 2016 album Black Focus has been one of the most heralded jazz records of recent times. In 2018 Yussef Dayes began releasing his first solo tracks, before partnering with
Tom Misch in 2020 to record their acclaimed joint album What Kinda Music as well as release solo live album Welcome to the Hills.
Arriving in New Zealand off the back of hot ticket arts festival shows for VIVID Sydney
and RISING Melbourne, Yussef Dayes invites New Zealanders to join him on a rollercoaster through jazz this June.
