Kaidi Akinnibi X Mackwood

In an exclusive double-headline show, longtime collaborators Kaidi Akinnibi & Mackwood join forces for an unmissable double bill as part of the 2026 EFG London Jazz Festival.

Rapidly emerging as two of the most exciting voices in the new wave of UK jazz and beyond, Kings Place is proud to present two artists at the heart of the London jazz scene.British South London-based singer, saxophonist, guitarist, and composer Kaidi Akinnibi is truly uncategorisable.

In the midst of an ambitious mission to release seven albums in a single year, each project unveils a new dimension of his seemingly limitless eclecticism - moving fluidly through post-rock, indie, jazz, folk, electronic, and far beyond.Mackwood has carved out a distinctive niche between progressive jazz, beatmaking and alternative dancefloor rhythms.

His sound fuses the pedigree of UK and international jazz with London’s new generation of player-producers, continuing the UK’s celebrated tradition of boundary-breaking crossover.This event will last approximately 2 hours, including the interval.
