The Roots<\/p><\/div>\n

Ask and ye shall receive. Last year I bemoaned<\/a> the fact that the Nice Jazz Festival was relying too much on regulars. Sponsored by singer\/pianist Jamie Cullum<\/strong>, this year’s program presents several rarely-seen-in-Nice artists such as Brad Mehldau, The Roots, Jason Moran<\/strong> and Roberto Fonseca<\/strong>. In addition to up-and-coming artists, look out for jazz legends Cassandra Wilson, Kenny Barron<\/strong> and Charles Lloyd<\/strong> as well as soul artists Lauryn Hill <\/strong>and Kool and the Gang<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The price has not gone up (yay!), remaining at \u20ac35 (\u20ac31 if purchased before 15 May) with a variety of reductions available. Check out the Nice Jazz Festival<\/a> site (in French) for all prices and booking and to this page<\/a> for English language info, tips and explanations on the infrastructure.<\/p>\n
