Umbria Jazz Festival

Absolute debut at Umbria Jazz. Koku Gonza is the daughter of a folk singer from Tanzania and an American saxophonist. In his voice - it was said of her - the African diaspora resounds. The music of this singer, guitarist, songwriter, is a well-assembled mix of neo soul, r & b, afrobeat, electro pop and roots of East Africa. Raised in Chicago, one of the capitals of blues as well as jazz, and then residing in New York, she became popular for participating in the show "Empire", a very successful TV series, and for some lucky (especially on the net) singles and videos that have given you long tours also in China and Africa. Definitely, a personality to be followed carefully
