Jazz op zondag — spring 2024

After the return of our jazzy Sundays last fall, we are ready to rock again this spring! The recipe remains unchanged: almost every Sunday there's a free jazz concert or dj set in the most beautiful café of Leuven. We welcome you four times a month: twice with a live concert, once with a night curated by LUCA Jazz (with a jam session) and once with a dj set. Additions to the programme will follow throughout the next weeks, so keep an eye on this page.

SOON

Joël Francis
Su 05.05.24 21:00

Meet Joël Francis, a young and promising Leuven-based artist who wants to turn the music world upside down. Her unique mix of gospel and r&b creates a sound that comes straight from the heart and goes straight to the soul. Be enchanted by her dreamy voice and discover a new dimension of musical comfort and connection.

Henri Hinke
Su 12.05.24 21:00

Henri Hinke is becoming a household name for our jazz nights. A lover of long, groovy cross-genre sets, he mixes jazz and funk, soul and disco, house, acid and breaks - often all in one night. He is a pure collector and plays vinyl only, carefully crafting sets packed with unexpected gems.

Luca Jazz - Opening concert + jam session
Su 19.05.24 21:00

STUK invites the jazz department of LUCA School of Arts for a concert and jam session in STUKcafé. This edition will be even more special, with LUCA Jazz inviting a big band on stage. Expect a 10-piece ensemble that is ready to blow STUKcafé away.

I H8 Camera
Su 26.05.24 21:00

Going out with a bang? Check. For the last Jazz op zondag of the season, we invite living legends I H8 Camera. The band was founded in 2005 by Rudy Trouvé and works without a fixed lineup and ever-changing musicians. Improvisation is key, albeit with some structure. Their sound varies from funk to post-punk and rock with of course jazzy elements. Lyrics are created on the fly, often using slam poetry or parlando. The name I H8 Camera comes from a misunderstanding during an interview for a French magazine: Rudy's use of a Hi8 video camera was misunderstood and turned into the name of the band.

Don't miss this grand finale of Jazz op zondag before we go into summer break!
