About Nubya Garcia

London-based saxophonist, composer, bandleader, and DJ Nubya Garcia is one of the leading lights in the resurgence of jazz-influenced sounds in the U.K.'s club culture and one of its prime Afro-futurist exports. In addition to leading her own bands, she has performed in and recorded with Makaya McCraven's transcontinental groups (alongside saxophonist and countryman Shabaka Hutchings) in the U.S. as well as in the U.K., and worked with MOBO Award-winning drummer Moses Boyd and legendary jungle producer/toaster Congo Natty. She has played in the Theon Cross trio, the Maisha sextet, and the Nérija septet. Her debut EP, 2017's Nubya's 5ive, sold out on vinyl in one day, and her follow-up, 2018's When We Are EP, placed on the British charts during its first week of release. She broke through with her widely acclaimed 2020 full-length debut Source, and followed it with the remix collection Source: We Move in 2021.
