Gig Information

This year we're playing at The Welsh Dragon for the Jazz Festival! With one big 80 minute set we're going to take you on a journey from here to outer-space and back again

Iskra are an otherworldly quartet heralding from Te Whanganui-a-Tara formed by saxophonist Josh Buckler and featuring Simon Grove (Niko Ne Zna) on helicon, Ato Kwamena (Culture Embassy) on percussion and David McGurk (Planet Hunter) on drums.

Inspired by the likes of Sons of Kemet and the London jazz scene, they bring driving grooves, soaring melodies and the fire of afro-beat, Balkan music and a style that is best described as brass-house. Think dance party at the end of the world, when the last lights have gone out
