Keznamdi Live at Cafe Du Nord

Keznamdi, the Kingston-born singer-songwriter, brings his Grammy-winning sound to San Francisco's Cafe Du Nord. Raised in a musical household where his parents led the reggae outfit Chakula, Keznamdi's music is a rich tapestry woven from roots reggae, dancehall, and global influences including Bongo Flava and R&B. Having spent formative years in Tanzania and Ethiopia before relocating to California, his perspective is as global as his sound.

His 2025 album 'BLXXD & FYAH' earned the Best Reggae Album Grammy, featuring collaborations with Mavado, Masicka, and others. At this intimate show, fans can expect a performance that balances militant messages with melodic warmth—a true representation of reggae's evolution. Keznamdi's live sets are known for their purposeful energy, moving both body and mind.

Cafe Du Nord provides the perfect backdrop for this evening of roots and revolution. With its historic stage and standing-room-only configuration, attendees can get up close to the artist's commanding presence. The night promises a journey through Keznamdi's catalog, from early tracks like 'My Love For You' with Chronixx to the transformative sounds of his latest work.
