Camilla George at Blue Note

A visionary saxophonist, Camilla George is also a composer, bandleader and innovator.
Her strong cultural roots and love of the fusion of African and Western music have inspired her unique style, which has made her one of the protagonists of the new London jazz scene, alongside colleagues such as Nubya Garcia and Shabaka Hutchings. Her music is a mesmerising blend of Afrofuturism, hip hop and jazz, with a political undertone that has a powerful connection to her Nigerian heritage and identity. Her latest studio album, “Ibio Ibio”, is a tribute to her tribe, the Ibibio people of Nigeria’s south-east coast and features an incredible lineup, including Daniel Casimir, Sarah Tandy, Winton Clifford, Renato Paris, Sheila Maurice-Grey, Rosie Turton, Shirley Tetteh, hip hop drummer Daru Jones, Birmingham rapper Lady Sanity and Sam Jones.
