Ebi Soda

A bill pairing Ebi Soda with Ruby Rushton, two acts from Cross The Tracks' weekly jazz session, staged at Freight Brixton in London. Both acts share one stage on the evening.

Ebi Soda is a funk act whose music also draws on R&B, soul, gospel and reggae. Its approach layers dub touches and springy bass lines with a post-punk edge, set against soft melodic phrasing and sharp solos.

Ruby Rushton, led by Tenderlonious, works in the spiritual jazz lineage descended from John Coltrane and blends it with afrobeat, Latin and hip hop rhythms. The pairing forms part of Cross The Tracks'weekly jazz session, billed as Soul Of The South, with the two acts sharing a single bill.

Freight Brixton is a concert and performance venue in Brixton, South London. The evening suits listeners who want soul-rooted grooves and jazz-influenced rhythms in one night.
