Jadu - Indo-jazz fusion at Gwdihw - May 5

I'm doing a DJ set in support of Jadu, an Indo-jazz fusion group from west Wales who'll be playing the Jazz Revhw at Gwdihw, Guildford Crescent, Cardiff city centre this Thursday 5 May 2011.

Jadu means 'magic' in Hindi, and the magic is crafted by the talented hands of five extraordinary musicians, Pete Stacey on soprano sax and flute; Rajesh David, vocals and harmonium; Kelly Smith tabla; Paul Uden guitar and Bryan Smith on tamboura.

Jadu's music is a creative synthesis of classical Indian music and European Jazz exporing the musical frontiers of the country created by Coltrane, McLaughlin and Ravi Shankar, the pioneers of Indo-Jazz.

8pm start, admission £3.

See Jadu's website for more about the band.
