Known as the world’s funkiest trombonist, Wesley has produced some of the greatest Funk/Jazz music ever made, both with his own band, 'The JBs' (which he directed/conducted with James Brown), and with 'The New JBs'. The 76-year-old American  musician is also famous around the globe for his incredible work – playing, directing or composing – for artists and musical legends including Funkadelic, Parliament, George Clinton, Maceo Parker, Count Basie, Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin, Curtis Mayfield, Barry White, Van Morrison, Lenny Kravitz and more.

The captivating artist will soon be landing down in Cyprus with the 'Generations Trio', featuring himself on vocals and trombone, 26-year-old Italian prodigy, Leonardo Corradi, on the organ and 47-year-old French drummer, Tony Match. The three musicians initially joined forces to pay tribute to the soulful Jazz of legendary organist, Jimmy Smith, and they clicked immediately, continuing to groove together in the most inspiring performances.

Audiences at the upcoming March concerts can expect a truly exhilarating and uplifting occasion combining Wesley’s outstanding experience, Corradi’s energetic reflection of Smith and other jazz giants, and Match’s jazz drumming coloured electronic sounds and African beats.
