Last week Robert Glasper Experiment were nominated for two Grammy Awards for Best R&B Performance and Best R&B Album for his hugely successful album Black Radio, while Glasper has built a strong UK following which saw his Experiment opening the London Jazz Festival with a barnstorming performance at the Royal Festival Hall in November. Robert Glasper said of his appearance at the festival: “Can't wait to come back to the UK and hit the incredible Love Supreme Jazz Festival with my Experiment band – the UK is like a second home for us! Look forward to checking out the entire festival and seeing all my people." The Experiment band will appear on the unique green-field festival indoor floored and seated Jazz stage.

The festival organisers have announced the event will have four stages (a main stage, a unique green-field festival floored and seated Jazz big top, a ‘Discovery’ stage and a dance tent) and hope this “will provide a diverse repertoire to engage the most serious jazz fans and general music lovers alike.” Differing from other UK city based jazz festivals, just one ticket to the Love Supreme Jazz Festival will give fans access to all of the music provided on all four stages: over 40 acts, across three days, at one price. The event will feature international food stalls, family activities, and a wide range of core, crossover and cutting edge jazz artists to compliment the main stage headliners.
