ISKRA @ Superfina for Wellington Jazz Festival

Fresh off the release of their debut EP "The New Spring", ISKRA are coming to Superfina for two sets of high energy horn led jazz and dance music.

ISKRA are an otherworldly quartet hailing 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 Brass-House. Think dance party at the end of the world, when the last lights have gone out.
