Returning to their Caribbean roots, they pay tribute to some of Jamaica’s greatest artists and record labels and playing some of the best-loved tunes of all time - Skatalite’s ‘Guns Of Navarone’, Prince Buster’s ‘Al Capone’, Harry J All Stars’ ‘Liquidator’ and Myrna Hague’s ‘What About Me’ among them.
Jazz Jamaica - supported by a DJ set by Michael McKeown (Hydroponic) - can be heard at Belfast’s Festival Marquee, Custom House Square on Friday, May 2.
Tickets are £10 and doors open at 8pm.
