To bring the Tropics to Cornwall is as complicated as it sounds, but it’s also extremely gratifying. That’s why Tropical Pressure Festival has become a music lover’s dream (whether they are project workers, volunteers, musicians or festival-goers), and that’s how, every July since 2014, the idyllic Mount Pleasant Eco Park...
No wonder that Nile Rodgers expressly asked to include KOKOROKO in the line-up of his upcoming Meltdown Festival at Southbank Centre. The 8-piece band is indeed one of the most up-and-coming and exciting acts flourishing from the London nu-jazz scene, and one of the reasons for their success is the...
Contrary to the average UK music festival, Wilderness Festival is equally centred on themes of healthy living, nature and the arts. From sacred nipple adorning, to wild swims and tree play, the festival’s main objective is to fortify the soul, restore the senses and enliven the spirit, by allowing its...

The event, organised and promoted by the Krankbrother family, fully embodies the spirit and taste of its architects; urban, jazzy and funky, and welcoming...
![Album Review: Dexter Story – Bahir [Soundway Recordings; March 2019]](http://www.rhythmpassport.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/dexterstory-bahir-335x335.jpg)
A highly eclectic range of instruments are to be heard on Dexter Story’s latest LP for Soundway, Bahir. Story is a multi-instrumentalist, who has been referred to as a polymath and clearly enjoys getting immersed in music. This is a groove-laden mixing pot of styles, all simmering away while the...
Now in its seventh year, the much-vaunted Love Supreme returns to the verdant fields of East Sussex for another weekend of some of the finest jazz, funk and soul upon these shores. From a relatively unknown and up-and-coming talent such as London-based trombonist Rosie Turton to major international star and...
