“San Francisco Soul” best describes RJJ’s unique and intoxicating sound. Led by dynamic front-woman Jaleh Lauren, this sultry sextet rocks into uncharted musical territories with their infectious blend of modern and throwback sensibilities. Armed with retro horns, heavy grooves, and catchy songs that are impossible to resist, RJJ can pair with your fancy cocktail at a smoky jazz club and shake up the funkiest dance party.
From selling out clubs/theaters to being a highlight at prominent festivals in the West Coast, East Coast and U.K., RJJ continues to sweep crowds off their feet for over a decade with their undeniable live show. Tour highlights include sharing stages with The Roots, Michael Franti and Spearhead, Thievery Corporation, as well prominent slots at festivals such as Bottlerock, Outside Lands and SF Jazz Fest.
