Each OneFest venue will host a daytime programme of talks and workshops, chaired by journalist and author John Robb and musicians such as Ahnansé (Steam Down), SK Shlomo, Ross Gautreau and Skinny Pelembe. The events are designed to educate aspiring young music industry professionals across the North-South divide.
Both London and Sheffield will also host a next-level evening programme of music, with unique one-off collaborations across generations of British Jazz, including Steve Williamson, Leafcutter John with StringTing (Tomorrow’s Warriors), Maisha with Nat Birchall and Okumu, Herbert, Skinner Trio with Byron Wallen.
