Partners Jam Nice CIC
Jam Nice CIC is the principle artistic content delivery partner in the project, liaising with Ghanaian-heritage artists. Jam Nice are leading track production & showcase production.
By programming and facilitating diverse live music Jam Nice create quality cultural opportunities in Bristol & across the UK – improving the quality of life & well-being of their community. In a notoriously difficult industry, they support diverse and emerging musicians (in the UK and overseas) to develop their art form by providing opportunities to perform & record music. It allows artists to realise their potential, increase the volume of quality content and strengthen and diversify the live music ecosystem, all of which will provide benefit to the UK's live music and recording industries.
