New Wave Magazine: 2026 Soundwave

About the show

New Wave returns to The Jazz Cafe with 2026.Soundwave - a forward-looking showcase spotlighting the artists shaping the sound of tomorrow.

Fresh off a sold-out early-2025 edition, the series’ next chapter brings three boundary-pushing talents to our stage.

Headlining is Tia Gordon, whose soulful depth and alt-RnB textures have marked her as one of 2026’s most essential new voices. She’s joined by Ceebo, the underground innovator fusing rap, alt-hip-hop and atmospheric production, and Leonie Biney, a rising alt-pop storyteller whose delicate yet arresting songwriting cuts straight to the core.

Together they form the pulse of the next wave - artists reshaping genres, expanding possibilities, and redefining where UK music is headed next.
