Africa) A pioneering force in South African hip-hop, Stogie T is renowned for his razor-sharp lyricism, commanding stage presence and decades-long influence on the global rap scene. Backed by a dynamic quartet, one of Africa’s most respected MCs delivers powerful performances shaped by history, politics and cultural identity. DON GLORI Unpicking the thread that stitches together Don Glori’s music would be an impossible task. His records combine elements of Jazz, Funk, Soul, RnB and Samba, yet he doesn’t fit neatly into any of those genres. His live show is more jazz - punk - funk than anything. One thing is certain, there is an undeniable, joyful, spirit that permeates through his music. Since relocating to London from Naarm/ Melbourne in 2023, Don has gone from strength to strength. Selling out shows at London Jazz Festival, Jassmine and Ronnie Scotts and gathering support from BBC, NTS, Worldwide FM, Rinse FM, KEXP, Tokyo FM, PBS and RRR. DEEP MIND (S. Korea) Seoul-based collective Deep Mind have quickly gained attention for their fresh and distinctive sound within South Korea’s jazz scene. While rooted in jazz, their sound naturally expands into electronic music, alternative R&B, and experimental elements – with dual guitars and synthesizers, the five-piece ensemble create hypnotic arrangements that shift effortlessly between precision and improvisation. FINN REES ORCHESTRA Finn Rees is a Naarm/Melbourne-based keyboardist, composer and producer whose work spans acclaimed projects including 30/70 and Close Counters. His music draws on jazz, soul and beat culture, capturing the creativity and connection at the heart of Naarm/Melbourne’s music community. ERICA TUCCERI Erica Tucceri is an improvising flutist, composer, band leader and producer who sits at the cutting edge of the Australian jazz crossover music scene. A prolific collaborator, she has played an integral role on numerous celebrated local releases (Surprise Chef, Alexander Flood, ZFEX, Don Glori, Jitwam, Teymori, Close Counters, WVR BVBY + more). Her work has garnered worldwide airplay and praise from the likes of Gilles Peterson and Yolanda Brown alongside performances at Brick Lane Jazz Festival (UK), Ronnie Scott’s (UK), Golden Plains (AU), Strawberry Fields (AU), Berghain (DE), and Club Gretchen (DE). Recently based in London and signed to UK label DeepMatter records, this exclusive MIJF performance will be the very first time that Tucceri’s debut album "Route 96" – due for release in late 2026 – will be performed live in full. IWUDA Iwuda is the solo project of First Nations bassist Davin Ojala. Named for the Anaiwan word for echidna, the project draws from jazz, groove, and a wide range of musical traditions to arrive somewhere distinctly its own: bass-forward modern jazz with a searching, restless quality at its core. LIVE SLUG REACTION Live Slug Reaction is an Adelaide-based groove band that takes influence from anything they can get their greedy slime trails on, ripping sounds and grooves from electronic, jazz-funk and rock, to create moody soundscapes and danceable tracks that leave no head unbobbed and no mossy textural stone unturned. The five slugs have played with acclaimed Australian acts across genres, including Alexander Flood, Majak Door, The Empty Threats and Any Young Mechanic and their music is recommended for anyone who likes having fun. SOLILOQUY Live DnB duo SOLILOQUY combines electronics and live instrumentation, performing high energy dance music in real time. First conceived at house parties playing in crammed living rooms, expect huge synth bass and drum breaks, as well as lush vocals and live sampling. EMELYNE (DJ) An active force within Naarm’s vibrant music scene, Emelyne is revered for her versatile bag of selections, with a special affinity for UK-inspired sounds, bombastic broken beat, forward-thinking rhythmic productions and booming dub. She taps into her love for bass heavy and experimental sounds through weekly show The Blend on PBS FM (co-hosted with Bevin Campbell) and you can catch her serving funky goodness behind the counter at Northside Records. AMBER FERRARO (DJ) Full to the brim with passion, depth and groove, Amber Ferraro merges her 10 years of musical and singing skills with the art of DJing. A resident at one of Naarm/Melbourne’s best clubs, Onesixone has solidified Ambers standing as a premier DJ. *Strictly no refunds
