9th of April 2026 | JON KENZIE | live @ Ruby Emma Hotel & Bar Amsterdam
JON KENZIE
During the pandemic Jon has used the time to write, produce and record a brand-new soul album which has been released in 2023.
Jon has already independently released three albums that show his diversity within the genres of Blues, Folk and Soul music. Whilst he draws influence from older artists such as, Muddy Waters, Al Green and Bob Dylan, he is also inspired by contemporary artists who explore a more vintage sound. Artists such as, Alabama Shakes, The Teskey Brothers, Gary Clark Jr and Leon Bridges. Jon’s new album might be his most homogeneous one so far, as he explores a closer fusion of genres in order to give the album its own sound and identity.
His groovy guitar licks and powerful, soulful vocals never fail to stop people in their tracks. Anyone who appreciates music with soul and a groove will enjoy what Jon Kenzie has to offer. His creations are a mix of intimate dynamics and driving emotions that draws the listener further in to his sound.

HÄUFIG GESTELLTE FRAGEN / FAQ
IS THIS A CONCERT OR DINNER MUSIC?
Quite clearly: concert! With the concerts we want to promote newcomer musicians with their own music, bring new music to the people, eat something good and have a great time with other people. For this to work, you should also listen to the bands at the concert and get involved with the music. This way the artists are not disturbed in their performance and the other guests are not disturbed while listening – and nothing stands in the way of a unique concert evening for everyone!
FOOD & DRINKS?
Ruby Emma offers a bar with a wide selection of drinks at moderate prices. For the small appetite there is a selection of snacks. However, cash payment is not possible.
We want to hear the music! That’s why we kindly ask you to be considerate when ordering drinks. Please order beverages that are noisy to prepare, like coffee or cocktails, before the performance starts or during breaks. You’ll have plenty of time to do so. The artists and the audience will thank you for it!
WHAT IF I DON’T GET ANY TICKETS?
That is of course a pity! But you can still come, because there are always tickets available. Put yourself on the waiting list and get a message when there are free seats.
WHY ADMISSION FREE?
We want that really every person has access to great live music events. Above all, this should not fail because of money. And that’s why we don’t charge admission to any of our concerts. Of course, we also have to cover our costs and pay fair fees to the musicians for their performances. That’s why we pass around our ARTIST’S HAT at all our concerts. You are welcome to donate money to the artist. Of course only if you like it and your situation allows it! This way you can do something good for the artist and for other concert visitors who otherwise don’t have enough money to visit concerts. The content of the hat is 100% for the benefit of the artists.
