about

What a year this has been for WAYJO! We celebrated our 35th year with a monthly concert series at Downstairs at The Maj and worked with some truly wonderful musicians from around the world.

The collection of music that you have here has been taken from about 40 hours of music that was recorded live at The Maj. They are special moments in time that show what all these wonderful young musicians are capable of, when they are given the opportunity to thrive and grow.

I love that you can hear the crowd, the bands encouraging each other, and the spectacular musicianship. What a vibe!

We hope that you enjoy the music as much as we did performing it for you.

Dr Mace Francis Artistic Director
