The sound of jazz will be in the air in Ubud on August 11 – 12 as the ARM Museum Garden plays host to Ubud Village Jazz Festival. With the theme ‘Beautiful Music for Beautiful Minds’, the 5th round of the highly-anticipated jazz fest will once again be bringing an eclectic lineup that consists of top tier mainstream, modern, traditional, and Latin performers. Highlights include the Grammy-nominee Gerald Clayton Trio with Joe Sanders (bass) and Gregory Hutchinson (drums); homegrown guitarist Balawan who will perform with a Balinese gamelan; trombonist Benny Likumahua who will share the stage with his son, Barry; and Steve Barry, endorsed by the Australian Embassy, winner of the 2013 Bell Award for Young Australian Jazz Artist of The Year.
