With just a few days left, we're excited for the upcoming Jazz:Re:Found festival, a highlight of Italy's summer music calendar. More than just its exceptional lineup, the festival offers a feast for the senses with its picturesque location in the Monferrato hills of Northwest Italy. From August 28th to September 1st, the festival, now in its 16th year, returns as Jazz:Re:Found Garden. This evolution emphasises its dedication to heritage and innovation, enhancing its stature as a distinguished cultural brand.
Founded in 2007 in Vercelli by Denis Longhi, Jazz:Re:Found has indeed expanded into a multifaceted project. It now includes four boutique festivals and operates across Turin and Milan with a host of live events and DJ-sets. It also runs a communication and booking agency, manages a network of record labels, an editorial platform named Garden of J, and supports an artistic residency program.
Hosted in the medieval village of Cella Monte, Piedmont, known for its vineyards and historic wine cellars called infernòt, the festival will showcase leading artists in jazz, jazztronica, tropical, funk, disco, and global beats from Italy and beyond., attracting thousands. In the lead-up to the festival, stay tuned for artist Q&As and specially curated playlists on Rhythm Passport, offering a glimpse into their musical influences and experiences at Jazz:Re:Found
