Wai’tuMusic has announced the lineup for its 2025 edition of Jazz ‘n Dine, featuring Ms. Lí-Lí Octave, “the Caribbean Neo Soul Queen.”
According to a press release from the Wai’tuMusic group, the event will showcase a variety of guest artists, surprise performances, and a gourmet dining experience. Notably, Ms. Octave’s 2025 live album will be recorded during the event.
Following the reported success of Jazz ‘n Dine 2024 and the live album *Play on Venus (Live at Jazz ‘n Dine 2024)*, released by Wai’tuMusic, the group says that excitement is building for this year’s gathering and the scheduled live recordings. Lí-Lí Octave’s team points out that she has introduced a unique sub-genre identified as Caribbean Neo Soul, representing her roots in Dominica, Barbados, and Montserrat. Collaborating with her collective LiiMiiX, she has created over 14 new songs. They also note her vocal prowess and engaging stage performance as contributing to her ability to deliver authentic live musical experiences.
Joining the Ms Octiave will be special guests Janae Jackson and Phael Lander, along with fellow Wai’tuMusic artists Janet Azzouz and Karlvin “J Cro” Deravariere. Each of these artists is set to debut new music intended for the Jazz ’n Dine 2025 Live Album. The evening will also feature unannounced guest appearances. “This is more than a concert—it’s a celebration of our Caribbean creativity,” stated Octave. “We’re making history, one note at a time.”
The success of Jazz ‘n Dine 2024, particularly the praised live album *Play on Venus (Live at Jazz ‘n Dine 2024)*, has paved the way for this 2025 event. Reports are that regional media outlet CaribVision has renewed its partnership with Wai’tuMusic to broadcast the 2025 event, reflecting the viewer support for Ms. Octave.
A spokesperson for CaribVision remarked, “Lí-Lí Octave isn’t just an artist—she’s a movement. I really like that her music unites the Caribbean, and we’re honoured to amplify her voice.”
