TC & The Groove Family

Longtime Leeds jazz/soul/global beats DJ/promoter Lubi Jovanovic (DJ Lubi) celebrates 40 years working in the music business this year (1982-2022). In celebration of this landmark, he's promoting a series of special live shows across various venues in Leeds during the year featuring musicians he's worked with over the decades. Tonight, he presents this fantastic triple bill at Brudenell Social Club as part of the new Leeds Jazz Festival.

TC & The Groove Family are a 10-piece collective whose music celebrates the coming together of cultures and the unity that music can provide for everyone. Driven by drummer Tim Cook, their live shows are powerful and dynamic, exploring grooves and genres from the UK and around the world, including afrobeat, breakbeat, jungle, jazz and highlife. The band have played alongside afro-fusion legends K.O.G & The Zongo Brigade and London jazzers Yussef Dayes, Pyjaen and Cykada at shows in Sheffield, Bristol, Leeds and London.
