Steve Bedi, who has been acknowledged as a world class Jazz musician, last Friday, May 27, launched his maiden jazz musical album, ' Syncos Jazz', at the +233 Jazz Club in Accra.

The well patronized event saw hundreds of music fans and popular personalities Kofi Okyere Darko aka KOD, Kwabena Kwabena, Gyedu Blay Ambolley and many others in attendance.

The album launch attracted hundreds of music lovers who trooped to the +233 Jazz Calub to witness the official launch of the much awaited album.

The launch, which was a star-studded affair, saw underground and popular stars mounting the open air stage to entertain patrons.

Steve Bedi, who performed creditably at the launch, held the audience spellbound with his music and electrifying dance steps.

Steve Bedi is the most sought-after saxophonist in the country to date and has performed and collaborated with legends like Hugh Masekela, trumpet virtuoso and music legend; Isaac Okyerema Asante, master African percussionist and Wutah, to mention a few.

Steve develops genuinely exciting African Jazz rhythms which are appealing to most Europeans, and a level of play that's comparable to jazz music legends of America.

The Chief Executive Officer of Scratch Studios, Kofi Amoakohene, who produced the album, said that he was eager to help develop the music industry in Ghana.

He told this writer that his outfit was ready to contribute towards the changing trend of Ghanaian music by providing top quality services including recording facilities for audio and video productions, rehearsal rooms, instruments and a 400-sitter venue for live performances.
