The leading jazz performer Cormac Kenevey will have a great show-up on this night as well to captivate the audience with his unique blend of melodies. His highly applauded appearance during the 6th edition of Skywards Dubai International Jazz Festival brought him back strongly to his UAE fans.
Jonas Desai, the great true-hearted talent will be performing as well with his music blend of guitar driven songs, mixed with highly personal lyrics, set to a catchy pop melody yet sensual and passionate. Jonas will defenitely thrill the crowd with new tracks of his new album to be release before the end of year.
