    The Pantaloons trio – bringing together three Pantalones or self-described "clumsy buffoons" under this quirky name – was formed in 2016 by members of Chili Brass Band. The trio initially toyed with melodies and rhythms in jam sessions and eventually gave voice to their original compositions in electronic dance music seasoned with sublimated jazz, funk, breakbeat, dubstep and more. Chosen by Radio Študent for the 2019 Klubski maraton, the Pantaloons exploded onto the Slovenian music scene and, through the support of 2020 INES#talent, played at MENT and Liverpool Sound City festivals. In early 2021, in collaboration with visual artist Stella Ivšek who performs under the stage name of VJ 5237, an online concert was streamed from Kino Šiška. More recently, the Pantaloons have released their first single and music video, L'Amore Sulle Nuvole, to be featured on their upcoming album. With Stella Ivšek, the Pantaloons will play their first live concert at the Jazz Festival Ljubljana.

    Due to the cancellation of his European tour Ben LaMar Gay will not perform at the 64th Ljubljana Jazz Festival.

    Artistic Directors (SI): Bogdan Benigar, Borja Močnik, Andrej Dré Hočevar*
