The Star's critic MARIA DUARTE reviews Sebastian, Four Mothers, Restless, and The Most Precious of Cargoes
A festival of consequence

Love Supreme Jazz Festival
Glynde Place, Sussex
ESTABLISHED in 2013, Love Supreme was Britain’s first outdoor jazz and soul festival, and is now one of the largest in Europe.
One highlight was Indo-jazz clarinettist Arun Ghosh. The rhythm section, combining pounding breakbeats with gutsy, visceral basslines, produce a gorgeously relentless lo-fi funk that feels at times like the missing bridge between the Velvet Underground and De La Soul.
Guitarist Freddie Moon’s guitar is in the same spirit, his licks reminiscent of both Lou Reed and Gabor Szabo, while Rosie’s one-note bass solo is pure grunge-jazz perfection.
