About the Artists
Natasha Blackwood
Natasha Blackwood is a jazz-adjacent songwriter and saxophonist from Stephenville, Newfoundland. Her performances have been described as refreshing, thought-provoking, humble, and playful all at once. Her voice, quiet yet confident, flits effortlessly through complex music with ease, tenderness and sass. Ian Lomax (The Jazz Journal, UK) described her music as “…a delight. Fun and entertaining at one level, but worth a deeper dive into the lyrics to explore exactly where she is coming from… a rare talent”. Her 2024 album “Love Songs for Good Machines” received international critical acclaim and radio play, as well as multiple nominations for East Coast Music Awards, and a win for MusicNL’s Jazz Artist of the Year in 2025. For Harbour Jazz and Blues Festival, Natasha will share original songs, and jazz standards, joined by Humberto Piccoli on guitar, and Terry Campbell on trumpet.
Baraka
Baraka is one of Newfoundland and Labrador’s brightest emerging talents — a soulful singer-songwriter with a rare gift for songs that get under your skin and stay there. He has shared stages with some of the province’s finest artists and earned national attention on CBC’s East Coast Music Hour. His 2023 recording Voicemail brought him a MusicNL Award and introduced him to audiences well beyond NL’s borders.
WEKU
Based in St. Johns, Newfoundland, WEKU is a jazz fusion trio driven by groove, curiosity, and musical freedom. Drawing from jazz traditions while embracing Highlife, Afrobeat, funk, and other global rhythms, the band creates music that is both deeply expressive and rhythmically powerful. WEKU (pronounced Weh-kuh) means “family” in Ga, the language spoken by the people of Ghana’s coastal Greater Accra Region
The band features Grant King on guitar, George Gogoe on bass, and Ashley “Big Ash” Chalmers on drums.
