Feast on free music at The J

Fusion-Gypsy Niq Reefman.

The J Noosa’s free monthly musical event, Sound Feast’s line-up has been announced for their next show on Friday 31 May from 6pm.

The line-up includes power trio Z Star Trinity (UK). Featuring British-Trinidadian artist, multi-instrumentalist and producer Zee Gachette. Zee’s reputation as a live performer spans the globe, with performances on international stages to audiences of up to 250,000 including Bestival, Glastonbury, Womad and Showtime London Olympics.

Cigány Weaver continue to make their stamp on Australia’s vibrant live music scene and cement their place as a must-see band. Formed out of a love for the legendary partnership of Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grapelli, Cigány Weaver are one of Australia’s most exciting gypsy-jazz ensembles. Their virtuosic and energetic live performances invoke everything from subtle toe-tapping to exuberant dance floor foot-stomping.

Karl S Williams delivers his songs with utter conviction, weaving beautiful ballads, stomping delta hollers, soulful rhythm and knee slapping blues. Growing up in a nowhere rural river town gives one a certain affinity for the blues and the hard-life music of the American south.

From a little town North of Sydney, Fusion-Gypsy Niq Reefman is drawing attention across the globe. Fans describe him as “Tim Minchin flying a trumpet through a thunderstorm” and his music as a “One-man-musical”. His name translates to “Victory for the people”, and he brings songs of beauty, mirth, camaraderie, inspiration and action to a world that craves the social zest of an Irish pub and the hopeful melodies of nature.

Sound Feast is an all ages event and everyone is welcome. There is a great community feeling to the event, with hot food, a full bar and seating available.
