SD PRESENTS: NAYANA AB, KAIDI AKINNIBI + TBA

STEAM DOWN PRESENTS: THE SOUNDS OF THE DIASPORA with ADIBA, NANDI +

Join **Steam Down** for a special summer evening of live music at Round The Dock on Friday 14th August 2026. As the sun sets over London, three of our favourite artists take to the festival's floating outdoor stage opposite Corner Corner, each presenting a unique live performance rooted in the sounds of the diaspora.

**Nayana AB** is a soulful artist fusing jazz, alternative R&B, Caribbean rhythms and global influences to create music that is both emotionally rich and culturally grounded. Her recent accolades include winning the Dr Martens Made Strong competition, the Cross the Tracks emerging artist competition, and the Tileyard X Soundcloud International Songwriting competition. As a solo artist she has performed alongside Ezra Collective and released her single ‘Joy’ as she continues to carve out her space in UK soul and jazz.

**Kaidi Akinnibi** is a British South London-based singer, saxophonist, guitarist, and composer and is truly uncategorisable. In the midst of an ambitious mission to release seven albums in a single year, each project unveils a new dimension of his seemingly limitless eclecticism - moving fluidly through post-rock, indie, jazz, folk, electronic, and far beyond.
