Nubiyan Twist In Session

Jamie has live music this week from the energetic, ten-piece afro-jazz group Nubiyan Twist, recorded exclusively for the show!

Lead by guitarist Tom Excell, Nubiyan Twist have been fuelling dance floors across the UK and Europe since they formed in Leeds a decade ago. Their third album, Freedom Fables, is released in March and features guest appearances from leading UK jazz talents including Soweto Kinch, Cherise and Ego Ella May.

Drawing on a range of styles - Nubiyan Twist's sound fuses jazz, afrobeat, hip-hop, latin, broken beat and soul - the group’s razor sharp musicianship is plain to hear in this special live session, which includes versions of fiery single Tittle Tattle, and soulful album cut Morning Light
