Grounded 011, with Kojay is now live | The set is warm, soulful, and feel-good. Moving through jazz, hip-hop, lovers rock, and soul, the selection is wide-reaching yet effortlessly cohesive. Kojay brought good energy and even better selections to Grounded – both of which come through clearly in this final set. A little something to lift the mood and move the body.
