British saxophonist, composer, DJ and bandleader Nubya Garcia is one of the brightest of a new generation of jazz talent, drawing comparison with greats such as Sonny Rollins and Dexter Gordon. Named a ‘major voice' by The New York Times, she has devised a brand of ‘eclectic, danceable, political jazz' that draws on influences from Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean. Tonight marks her Proms debut.
