Continuing our remit to showcase emerging young talent, award-winning J Steps is a groundbreaking 12-piece jazz ensemble for female and non-binary jazz musicians under the age of 18.
Founded and directed by saxophonist Hannah Horton, J Steps nurtures the talent of young improvising musicians, its main aim being to balance the historic lack of representation of women in jazz.
Hannah received the 2023 Parliamentary Jazz Award for Jazz Education of the Year in recognition of her accomplishments.
This talented young group performs a mix of jazz standards such as Tenor Madness, Cantaloupe Island, and Sugar, plus originals and other captivating music.
J Steps have performed at the prestigious EFG London Jazz Festival, plus venues such as Saffron Hall, Toulouse Lautrec, and Jazz Cafe POSK.
Rarely do you get the opportunity to experience a teenage ensemble as authentic, musical, and tight as this!
