BRIC JazzFest 2025 invites you on a journey that begins in Brooklyn and radiates out into the world. This year’s genre-defying lineup embodies jazz as a global language—shaped by migration, innovation, and collaboration. With half the groups led by women and visionary producer and composer Adrian Younge as guest curator, the festival features artists blending jazz with traditions from Morocco, South Africa, Cuba, Ethiopia, Israel, the UK, and more. Known for bridging global Black musical traditions, Younge brings a curatorial vision shaped by recent collaborations with Brazilian artists on his 2025 album Something About April III, as well as with Ghanaian legend Ebo Taylor.
From the hypnotic fusion of Saha Gnawa to Meklit Hadero’s Ethio-jazz storytelling, OKAN’s Afro-Cuban fire, and Nubya Garcia’s Caribbean-infused London sound—these artists aren’t just playing jazz, they’re expanding it. Add in iconic figures like Dee Dee Bridgewater, rising stars like Endea Owens, and boundary-pushers like Chief Adjuah and Karriem Riggins, and you have a lineup that reflects the power of diversity as jazz’s creative engine.
Two nights of legendary performances, bold new voices, and a global celebration of sound—from Brooklyn to the world.
This year’s carefully crafted lineup is curated by artist Adrian Younge along with Brice Rosenbloom, BRIC’s Chief Programming Officer Deron Johnston, & Associate Producer Penelope Gould.
