JEFREN MESA 

Although Jefren Mesa hasn’t been playing at Bourbon Street for very long, one look at that behind the drumkit, and you know: this dude’s got skills! What’s more, this fun-loving session player always has a positive attitute and never fails to put that frown upside down. It’s not a coincidence that Jefren is the go-to guy for members of Bourbon Street favourites like Treasure, Brand Nu Funk and La Frica. Unsurprisingly, his style of preference is based in soul and funk. His smooth sense of rhythm, and sophisticated fills and solos make up the ideal foundation for groups like these. Make sure to check out his renditions of legendary tunes by MJ and Prince. It’s a joy to watch him get into the groove on some of his favourite tunes. It makes you enjoy the music even more!
