Xjazz-Festival: Hejira

Out of the depths of London’s vibrant young music scene emerges Hejira with an unique sound experience that is soulful, poetic and yet gently groundbreaking. Gilles Peterson describes their music as "uncomplicated and beautifully arranged, balancing gorgeous vocal harmonies atop finger picked guitar melodies and bustling percussion." When played live the remarkably infectious sound captures the entire room in no time at all.
