Nubya Garcia
Experience one of Britain's great jazz artists in Molde!
Nubya Garcia emerges from the vibrant young British jazz scene where expressions of hip-hop, club music, and jazz intertwine seamlessly
Raised in Camden, London, and later educated at the Royal Academy of Music, Garcia has become a sought-after and critically acclaimed musician in the jazz world.
Garcia arrives at Moldejazz with her own quartet (Source, Nubya’s 5ive, plus a slew of singles and EPs). She also features on numerous releases such as those by Moses Boyd and Ezra Collective, and has collaborated with Khruangbin, touring with the band in 2023. Nubya Garcia's music is modern yet firmly rooted in the jazz tradition. The quartet is undoubtedly among the best that the British jazz scene has to offer, displaying great energy and firepower!
As a composer, Garcia boasts credits for music in the Apple TV series Ted Lasso, OWN Network, and FX TV, as well as providing music for the game Fortnite by Epic Games and several podcasts, including Anik Noni Rose's podcast Bein Seen.
Garcia's latest release, the single "Fortify," was released in January 2024. She describes it as "searching and seeking ways to protect and strengthen yourself within the disruption and chaos of life, about creating safe spaces and practices to let go of your stresses, and to elevate the joy within those practices and spaces"
