Etuk ubong

Celebrating 10 years of Late Night Jazz in the Elgar Room, with the freshest sounds on the London jazz scene, part of the EFG London Jazz Festival. Etuk Ubong is an in-demand trumpeter, composer and bandleader, hailing from Akwa Ibom State in southern Nigeria. Following the release of his latest single Black Debtors and a recent residency at London’s Jazz re:freshed, Etuk has exploded onto the UK music scene. Drawing inspiration from the jazz greats, afrobeat, highlife and ekombi, he adds that the sounds of the elements – water, wind and fire – inspire him, which is why he calls his music ‘Earth Music’. His compositions reflect his heritage and life philosophy of goodwill, peace and love to humanity.
