Azamiah (SXSW)

4.7

Azamiah is a Glasgow-based jazz collective primed to become the next major act from the UK jazz underground. The four-piece—featuring vocalist INDIA BLUE, keyboardist Josef Akin, drummer Alex Palmer, and bassist Norman Villeroux—crafts genre-fluid music that draws on jazz roots while weaving in electronica, dub, and neo-soul influences.

Their 2023 debut album In Phases earned critical acclaim from The Skinny and CLASH, with plays on BBC 6Music and NTS. Their recent EP Two Lands, released in May 2025, showcases emotional honesty and fresh intensity. The band has performed across prestigious stages including Latitude Festival, Edinburgh Jazz and Blues Festival, Brick Lane Jazz Festival, and venues across Europe.

Azamiah creates a unique listening experience—taking you on a journey across moody and light landscapes with their innovative blend of jazz and contemporary production techniques. Don't miss this official showcase at one of Austin's premier brewery venues!
