Jazz Cafe: Wrap Up '26

Another chapter closes with our end-of-year showcase, rounding up 3 Jazz Cafe acts who caught our attention in 2026 and needed a rerun. Joining us on stage: two kalme blend Afro-electronic textures, soulful melodies and live instrumentation, with touring credits alongside Kokoroko, Davido and Tiwa Savage. Hemai brings together contemporary electronics, jazz, soul and broken beat, with production credits alongside Oscar Jerome. IYAMAH fuses soulful RnB, reggae and African rhythms into her self-described ‘Rootsy Soul’, with over 35 million streams and tours alongside Mahalia and Masego.
