Gordon Wedderburn (GW Jazz)

Gordon Wedderburn is one half of the couple behind GW Jazz, a grassroots organization supporting Jazz, particularly emerging talent in London. Through his live event residencies, radio show, selector/dj activities and clothing brand, they’ve collaborated with and supported some of the biggest names on the London Jazz scene including, Sons of Kemet, Camilla George, Zara McFarlane, Ben Hayes, Nubiya Garcia, Moses Boyd, Lokkhi Terra, Dele Sosimi, Robert Mitchell, Collocutor, Tomorrow’s warriors and Ezra Collective.

Celebrating thirteen years on the scene, they are known particularly for spotting and helping to nurture young talent and their residences are often touted as the place to go to see the next wave of talented musicians. The collectives Nihilism, Invariance, Brother’s Testament and Hypernova are but a few that have performed on the GW Jazz platform.

Gordon’s dj sets largely parlay the now and next generation of musicians and producers and bring Jazz, electronica, dub, world, neo soul, lo-fi, afrobeat, Brazilian and more together, combining their Jamaican livity and cosmopolitan London existence.
