Mark’s third release is the first offering on his own label ‘Banger Factory Records’ - Arashi No Ato (2021).

Discover Kavuma’s music and enter a world where vibes, blues and rhythm collide with gospel, soul, dance music and conteporary jazz. With over a decade of experience playing the trumpet and keys in London’s rapidly expanding jazz scene, his unique musical alchemy has the means to bring jazz back to the dance floor.

Mark infuses this indelible musical movement with the energy, attitude and swagger of a new generation of creators. He has a unique and distinctive trumpet sound. His lyricism, soulful tone and grace of technique spread infectious joy and mutual excitement among audiences and fellow musicians alike.

Over the last seven years, the band has developed and nourished a truly unmistakable group sound and attracts and features some of the most gifted and engaging musicians on the scene today. “What is more, the band brings together and unifies the local London jazz scene. Spreading love and good vibes.”
