Joining forces for a very special evening in the round, Jaubi and Tenderlonious will be hitting The Night Cat stage with special guests Horatio Luna and Shio.

JAUBI 

Jaubi (pronounced “Jaw-Bee”) is an instrumental quartet from Lahore, Pakistan. The band is named after an Urdu word loosely translated as “whatever/whoever”. Creating whatever sounds good and whatever feels good is the groups guiding principle. This has led to the growth of the band, who collaborated with Tenderlonious (22a) and Latarnik (EABS & Bloto) for their debut album Naf’s At Peace, released on Astigmatic Records in 2021.

The collaboration began back in April 2019, when 22a label founder and multi-instrumentalist Tenderlonious and EABS/Bloto keyboard and synth maestro Marek ‘Latarnik’ Pędziwiatr
travelled to Lahore in Pakistan to take part in some improvised recording sessions with Jaubi. Nothing whatsoever was written down during the recording sessions – no sheet music, no song titles. It was sincere. All egos were left behind and hearts and souls were open and poured into the music. Two remarkable albums came from those recording sessions, both of which have been met with mass acclaim. The music has been described as spiritual jazz-fusion meets psychedelic Hindustani classical with nods to golden era hip hop. Both albums were featured as The Guardian “Global Album of The Month” and were included in their album of the year lists in 2020 and 2021 respectively. They received coverage and support from some of the worlds key tastemakers and publications, including Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, Gilles Peterson, Downbeat, The Guardian, Mr Scruff, Jazzwise, Mojo, Iggy Pop and many more.

TENDERLONIOUS

“Mind blowing live show! I love this guy and all his ideas” GILLES PETERSON

22a label boss, flautist, saxophonist, producer and DJ, Ed ‘Tenderlonious’ Cawthorne is regarded as one of the leading figures in the London jazz and underground music scene. His South London based record label, 22a, is one of the most respected independent labels in the U.K. following a succession of sought after releases spanning jazz, house, hip hop, soul, garage, Indian classical and jungle. Running a record label is enough work alone, so anyone who digs a little deeper will know that Tenderlonious has amassed an armoury of releases that transcend your average U.K. artist.

We acknowledge that this event will be held on Wurundjeri land of the Kulin Nation and recognise that sovereignty was never ceded. We pay our respects to their Elders, past, present and emerging.
