Kaz & Sami

Get ready for an unforgettable night at Black Cat as the dynamic duo Sami Stevens and Kazemde George light up the stage! Hot off Kaz's NYC residency at Ruth and Sami's ongoing tour with the legendary Norah Jones, these two artists are back together for a special run that you won't want to miss. Sami Stevens is an acclaimed singer-songwriter whose captivating performances blend Jazz, Soul, and Folk into a sound that's all her own. Kazemde George, a visionary saxophonist, composer, and beat-maker, infuses his music with the rich rhythms of the African diaspora—drawing from American, Cuban, and Brazilian styles. With over a decade of collaborations under their belt—including Sami's 2023 release 'Morning' on Sunnyside Records and Kaz's 2021 album 'I Insist' on Greenleaf—their chemistry is electric. Joining them on stage are some of the hottest names in the scene: Elé Howell on drums, fresh from tours with Chief Adjuah and Ravi Coltrane, along with local legends Giulio Xavier Cetto on bass and Kai Lyons on guitar. Expect a night of soulful vibes, deep grooves, and genre-defying music that will keep you buzzing long after the show ends. Don’t miss this chance to catch this powerhouse lineup in action!
