Kenny G, Grammy-award winner and legendary American jazz saxophonist, is all set to bring jazz (and blues) back to Hua Hin Beach on May 7.

 

The International Jazz & Blues Festival 2022 will be held at Hua Hin’s True Sport Arena, a two–hour drive south of Bangkok, showing the world that Thailand’s reopening to the global tourism market is in full swing.

 

The highlight is “Wonderful Night Kenny G” – a 90-minute live jazz performance by Kenny G, or Kenneth Bruce Gorelick, who is popular with Thai jazz aficionados.
