Naked City festival 2020 line-up: Nubya Garcia, Hunee and more confirmed

Naked City has revealed the full line-up for its second edition as the festival plots its return to south-east London this summer.

London saxophonist Nubya Garcia and Congolese collective KOKOKO! are among the biggest names set to play at Beckenham Place Park on July 25.

Elsewhere, there will be sets from the resurgent Ethio-jazz artist Hailu Mergia, singer Shygirl — aka DJ Blane Muise — and keys supremo Joe Armon-Jones.

Naked City won plaudits last year by pairing live jazz, dub, Afrobeat and soul music with DJ sets, and does so again this year. Famed drummer Tony Allen and techno legend Jeff Mills will continue their collaboration, with further DJ slots for Hunee, LTJ Bukem, Romare and more.

Festival organisers, the brotherly duo Krankbrother, will also perform.
