The famed band are currently recording their eighth studio album and have promised to treat fans at Delicious to some of their newer, unreleased material, as well as offer some twists on their familiar songs, but have advised that the final setlist decisions will only be made just before they perform.
Singer Jay Kay said: “I don’t like to make final setlist decision till just before the show. There will definitely be never before heard arrangements of songs. I like to give the crowd stuff they know but in a fresh way.”
When asked if the band have performed at a food and music festival before, he explained: “You know what, I don’t think we have. I notice there seems to be more and more of these things springing up and I think it’s a good idea. Why should people have to put up with sh*t food at a festival? It seems a good thing for great food and great music to go hand in hand.”
On touring internationally, the performer added: “It is a big.., perhaps the most important part of what Jamiroquai are about – playing live. What I haven’t done for a while is a prolonged world tour – we used to do those back in the day but if I spend too much time away from home I don’t like it. It’s something experience has taught me so now I do things in bite sized chunks!”
The festival takes place at Blue Hills Country Equestrian Estate on October 5th and 6th, with South African artists like Lira, Danny K, Khuli Chana, Prime Circle and Mi Casa also set to perform.
