Effortless, Fearless, 2026

Here’s a half decent find for early 2026: the debut release by Momooko Gill. It came via Gilles Petereson, natch. It’s very much of its time, coming out of the Total Refreshment Centre. What I love about the growing N Ldn jazz scene is the inclusivity. Powerful females, cool as fuck, blowing away all the old hairy bollocks about what jazz should represent. It’s not strictly jazz, either. It’s without a doubt a sound that is very much 2026, and one that could only come out of N Ldn right now. Superb.
