Join us for THE REZA KHOTA TRIO – Live at the Kalk Bay Courtyard.

SUNDAY 26th JULY. 16:00 – 18:00
Reza Khota – Guitar and pedals
Jonno Sweetman – Drums
Nick Williams – Bass

This Cape Town based trio centres around the 14 year long musical partnership between Reza Khota and Jonno Sweetman who have played together in various incarnations of Khota’s bands, with the longest standing being the quartet with bassist Shane Cooper and saxophonist Buddy Wells. The quartet released their debut album Transmutation in 2013 and Liminal in 2018. The music created together has delved into the common sonic spaces between jazz, rock, afrobeat, ethio-jazz and music beyond classification. At the core of this musical collaboration is a deep concept of how to make a sound together. It is orchestration through an understanding of the sonic character and potential of the instruments.

The current ensemble is joined by bassist Nick Williams, completing the guitar trio and bringing his unwavering creativity and mindfulness to every song. The trio plays original compositions by Khota and Sweetman, as well as some guitar-friendly jazz tunes by other composers.
