Dear Ethio-Jazz Family, we’ve had to make some changes to the tour to allow me to take extra rest. We will be announcing the rescheduling of the shows which were due to take place last week and sadly we had to cancel Valencia due to the tragic events. But today we kick off in Barcelona and we look forward to seeing you all. Peace, Love & Ethio-Jazz

Before/After. 52 years between those 2 pictures in Time Square. 1972 when ‘Mulatu of Ethiopia’ was recorded in New York. 2024 when Ethio-Jazz triumphed across 3 nights in New York. What a beautiful journey . @skinnywashere got me back in the same spot or thereabout. Peace, Love & Ethio-Jazz

There are moments to live for. Yesterday was one of them, taking the stage at the historical @hollywoodbowl with my amazing musicians bringing the science of Ethio-Jazz and to feel the love was priceless. We will never forget this moment. Thank you @kamasiwashington for inviting us and for sitting in on our show. Peace, Love and Ethio-Jazz. 📷 by Kris Simms and Quinton Scott
