Kamaal Williams

Kamaal Williams playing East Coast shows after Noise Pop

We recently mentioned that UK jazz/funk/electronic/hip hop blender Kamaal Williams would be coming to the U.S. to play Bay Area festival Noise Pop in 2019, and we hoped he’d be stopping on the East Coast while here’s here too. Turns out, he is indeed.

Kamaal added a NYC show for March 9 at Le Poisson Rouge (tickets), an Atlanta show, and possibly still has more TBA. All of his shows are with Jitwam. Updated dates are listed below.

UPDATE: He’s also playing LA, Toronto, Montreal, and Miami.

Earlier this year, Kamaal (who also makes electronic music as Henry Wu) released his first jazz album as a solo artist, The Return, which cracked at least one year-end list so far. It followed his great 2016 album with drummer Yussef Dayes, Black Focus, which came out under the name Yussef Kamaal.
