Musicology Barcaffè Sessions is a concert series that has already impressed Belgrade in the 2016/17 music season with the hosting of outstanding musicians such as Gregory Porter, Brand New Heavies, Hindi Zahra, Jose James and Meshell Ndegeocello. It is a fresh concept of a concert experience in the city, which allows musicians to perform in a real club atmosphere, and gives the audience the opportunity to see and experience the artists up close. The story begins with a concert by the legendary British acid jazz band Incognito, who will perform in Cvetličarna on September 30.

I talked to them about the new Galvany Street album, on which they deviated from their classic sound, but they did not impress me any less.
