San Francisco-based Independent Jazz Musician Eki Shola

Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with San Francisco-based Independent Jazz Musician Eki Shola .. We caught up with this talented artist to discuss her new 2024 CD Kaeru and a very interesting ride in jazz. On this 5th album, it was mainly recorded in Japan with some fantastic local musicians. Born in London to Jamaican parents, she was raised in a musical family. She emigrated to the U.S. in ’87. In 2016, fueled by grief, she was inspired to release her debut album, Final Beginning. Subsequently, after a traumatic escape from the Sonoma County October 2017 wildfires, she was further moved to focus more on her music. We get into all of this.
