BLACK JESUS eXPERIENCE
### LIVE@ THE GRAND ROOM
Get ready for an extraordinary night of rhythm, culture and groove as BLACK JESUS eXPERIENCE (BJX) take over LIVE@ The Grand Room.
One of Melbourne’s most distinctive and internationally acclaimed live acts, BLACK JESUS eXPERIENCE bring together the power and beauty of traditional Ethiopian music with an irresistibly danceable fusion of funk, jazz and hip-hop.
Fronted by Ethiopian-born singer Enushu, whose hauntingly beautiful vocals draw upon the traditions of her homeland and her remarkable life journey, alongside Zimbabwe-born poet and MC Mr Monk, BJX is a seven-piece musical force built for the live stage.
Across two decades, the band has released nine albums, including two celebrated collaborations with legendary Ethiopian musician Mulatu Astatke, and taken its unmistakable sound across five continents.
Their international journey has included performances at Glastonbury, WOMAD, SAKIFO, Bushfire and Wasserfest, along with appearances in Ethiopia for the African Union 50th and 60th Anniversary celebrations.
