Steam Down (headliner)
Steam Down, the vibrant alternative jazz collective hailing from Deptford, South-East London, was born from the creative vision of multi-instrumentalist and producer Ahnansé in May 2017.
What started as a local gathering for London-based musicians has transformed into a weekly event, fostering spontaneous and diverse sonic expressions reflecting the collective’s urban experiences.
Widely acclaimed in London’s music scene, Steam Down has been featured in The Guardian, Time Out, and The New York Times. Their achievements include two Jazz FM awards and captivating performances at prestigious festivals like Montreux Jazz Festival and Glastonbury’s Park Stage. Collaborations with artists such as Sampa The Great and P Money showcase their versatility.
Notable tracks like ‘Free My Skin’ and ‘Etcetra,’ released through Blue Note, have garnered millions of streams globally, earning a spot on the FIFA21 soundtrack and the Paramount+ romcom ‘Flatshare.’ Following the success of the ‘Five Fruit’ EP, Steam Down is eagerly preparing for their debut album set to release in 2024.
Engaging with audiences globally, Steam Down embodies co-creative experiences, transcending language and cultural barriers. Their impactful journey continues, pushing boundaries and redefining the contours of contemporary jazz.
