 I went to the Jazz Festival yesterday and will be going again today.

I first saw Mopao Mumu.

She was very pregnant and actually took a pee break during her performance. She had sort of R&B rock/fusion sound, no true percussion but a DJ behind her that queued up a whole rhythm section.

Then I saw Mereba:

In some of her songs she could channel the slightest hint of Stevie Nicks, in others she would rap for part or most of the song, it was quite a mix. Also, no true percussion here; the keyboardist produced the percussion with his keyboard or whatever equipment he had.

Neither of these two impressed me sufficiently to look into them further.
