The festival will start with the Roamin' Street Band, an 11-member band from Pirkanmaa playing old New Orleans-influenced jazz from the 1910s and 1930s. The program is based on the cheerful and danceable standards of the early days of jazz - with a modern twist.

The second performer of the event, JJ Nybergh & The Bluesradiators, plays with an uncompromising motto: Blues is a good feeling! You can also hear nuances of funk, rock, blues and gospel in the band's playing.

Saxophonist Timo Lassy, ​​no stranger to the Kirjazz & Blues stage, is returning with his new line-up Timo Lassy Trio. The band's music features strong 1960s soul jazz spiced with plush string arrangements and electronic elements. In addition to Lassy, the trio includes Ville Herrala (bass) and Jaska Lukkarinen (drums).

At the end of the evening, the music of the energetic Wiley Cousins ​​Trio takes the stage, featuring r & b, rock, blues, country, rockabilly and a mixture of all of them in funky New Orleans spirit. In addition to Wiley Cousins ​​from Texas, Tommi Laine (guitar) and Ville Lehtovaara (drums) play in the trio.
