JazzAscona 2024 ⎮ Meschiya Lake & Jungle Jazz Band

Acclaimed New Orleans vocalist Meschiya Lake meets The Jungle Jazz Band: upbeat, danceable Hot Jazz!
Repeatedly awarded “Best Female Vocalist” and “Best Traditional Jazz Artist” at the “Best of the Beat” Awards, Meschiya Lake is one of New Orleans’ most acclaimed Trad Jazz voices.
A true force of nature, Meschiya Lake is originally from South Dakota and discovered New Orleans when she was touring with a circus troupe. She has resided in the Delta City since 2007, where she quickly established herself as an entertainer and a singer.
After her 2018 debut, we find her again at JazzAscona 2024 with a slightly reshuffled lineup from the one that accompanied her in 2018. The band is called The Jungle Jazz Band and consists of six young musicians living in Berlin who share the same passion for old New Orleans Jazz.

Unbelievable! Where have the jazz moments from the nineties gone until about 2015 in Ascona? ? I have read the program quite a bit this year and heard a few things. But I made the right decision and stayed away. But this, for example, is the jazz that the enthusiast wants to see and hear. Greetings, Herman. (Nieuwegein NL)
