Aisha Khan & the Rajahs - Live in our Heated Garden Marquee

Aisha Khan & the Rajahs are a five piece London based Rhythm & Blues band with a lineage of musical excellence spanning three decades and authenticity combined with originality emanating from every pore.

Headed up by Aisha Khan who has been heralded as having "...the magic of a Diva, an authentic heroine [who] enraptured and practically destroyed the audience that filled the...room." Aisha came from unlikely beginnings as a second-generation British Asian who fell into Roots music via the surprisingly common portal of falling in love with Elvis when she was 13! From those unlikely beginnings, she has turned into one of the finest UK Rhythm & Blues interpreters and songwriters of her generation.

This tight band is comprised of Al Nicholls (Blue Harlem, Sister Suzie, the Big Six, the Big Town Playboys) on sax, Mal Barclay (The Cadillac Kings, Katie Bradley, Oo-Bop-Sh,Bam) on guitar, Matt Radford (Nick Lowe, Tanita Tikaram, Big Joe Louis) on Bass and Danny Howard (King Kurt, The Mamboleros, the Savage Hornets) on drums.

The live show is full of joy and toe-tapping energy and based on a heady mix of robust Blues and R&B covers and outstanding original material in the same vein.

2024 saw two new album releases, firstly the much lauded Magnificent Twelve, a collection of duets with some of the best contemporary Roots music performers today, including, amongst others, Ray Gelato, Jackson Sloan and Paul Ansell from this side of the Pond and Carl Sonny Leyland, Deke Dickerson and Big Sandy from the US.

Secondly a solo album, both offerings released on Spanish label Folc Records.

The band work continuously in London and have played all over Europe, particularly in Spain, where they have a sizeable following.

Sundays will never be the same after this!
