“Choose Love — An Evening of Soul, Connection & Smooth Jazz”
Send us Fan Mail Welcome to The Coffee & Smooth Jazz Lounge — where flavor meets rhythm. Join Jonathan Kajubi from Kampala, Uganda, for an evening of smooth jazz centered around love, connection, friendship, calm, anticipation, and the beauty of meaningful moments . This episode begins in Uganda with fellow trumpeter Marvin Birungi , then travels through soulful grooves from Marcus Anderson, Brian Culbertson, Lil Maceo, Charles Langford, Rohan Reid, Julian Vaughn, and Serinity B. It’s an evening designed for slowing down, enjoying the music, and remembering that sometimes the greatest luxury is simply having a moment to connect. SET ONE — FROM UGANDA TO THE WORLD Marvin Birungi — “Walungiwa” Marvin Birungi — “Kiss of Life” Marcus Anderson — “I Choose Love, I Choose You” Brian Culbertson — “With You” Lil Maceo — “Shake It” We begin with the sound of Uganda before moving into soulful expressions of love, connection, and feel-good groove. From Kampala to listeners around the world, this set celebrates the universal language of smooth jazz. ☕ COFFEE MOMENT — Coffee, Connection & Choosing the Moment This week’s Coffee Moment celebrates Ugandan coffee and the moments created around it. A beautiful cup of coffee can be more than a beverage—it can become an invitation to slow down, listen, talk, laugh, dream, and simply enjoy being present. Pair that moment with smooth jazz, and an ordinary evening can become something memorable. Sometimes, the moment is the luxury. SET TWO — EASY MOMENTS & DEEP GROOVES Charles Langford — “I Told You So” Rohan Reid — “Placid Mood” Julian Vaughn — “Waiting for You” A smooth progression from easygoing grooves and peaceful moods into the anticipation of what—or who—might be waiting just around the corner. SET THREE — VELVET NIGHTS Serinity B — “Blue Velvet Kisses” Serinity B — “Night on the Town” As the evening deepens, the lounge moves into its nighttime atmosphere.
