Live jazz concert by Cong-Fusion, led by Ryan McCaffrey, blending Latin, funk, Afro-Cuban, drum and bass and jazz.
Cong-Fusion play The Stables on Friday 27 November, with the set starting at 8:15pm on Stage 2. They're a jazz group led by Ryan McCaffrey, who writes the material and plays multiple instruments across the band.
What they do is a bit of a crossover. The set is built around McCaffrey's originals, and the sound pulls from Latin, funk, Afro-Cuban, drum and bass and jazz. It's a wide net to cast, but that's the whole point of the name — it's a fusion of styles rather than a single one. If you're into jazz that doesn't stay in one lane, this is exactly that kind of thing.
They've been playing out for a few years now. Their debut album came out in 2022, and since then they've picked up a three-star review in Jazzwise and airplay on BBC Introducing, Worldwide FM, Totally Wired Radio and Jazz FM. They've also played the London Jazz East Festival, the Rye International Jazz & Blues Festival, the Cambridge Jazz Festival and Pizza Express Live, so they're well-used to the stage.
