Live Jazz London

Influences: Gil Scott-Heron, Pharoah Sanders, The Last Poets

SpitNights is a live showcase where spoken-word poets perform over an improvised jazz band that builds a soundtrack in real time, with no rehearsals between the musicians and the poets. Each night brings a different lineup, so the mix of poetry, interludes and unplanned collaborations changes from show to show. Built on the UK's emerging-artist circuit after sold-out runs at Jazz Cafe and Roundhouse in 2026, the residency is designed to win over listeners who think they don't like poetry.
