Blind Mango Chutney loves the Latin, African and South African flavours this week plus an important critique of the Black experience by jazz-influenced Adrian Younge.
Blind Mango Chutney gets his groove on once again with Brazilian feels, 70s jazz funk and the debut of Auckland drummer Taylor Griffin (Thu 29, Ponsonby Social Club). And live in the studio Tim Stewart (Love Square) performs with his new band Codes (Karen Hu, Loxmyn Ness, Sean Martin-Buss) ahead of their Pride Festival gig also on Thursday 29th at the Wine Cellar, K Rd. It’s a history lesson in queer jazz plus post-punk funk all in one!
Blind Mango Chutney has guest Taylor Griffin in the studio, a new drummer on the scene, to talk about his debut EP and the creative process, plus Mango's pick of sublime grooves to jazz your day away.
Blind Mango Chutney eases us in with some laidback Paul Desmond and finishes with the innovative pianist Joanne Brackeen. In between he has guitarist Alex Pipes in the studio to introduce us to his album "Square One", plus a bunch of other cool jazz, of course.
