Jâca is an award-winning clarinet/guitar duo made up of two classically trained virtuosos with diverse musical backgrounds who have set out to explore the limits of multi-genre instrumental music. Portuguese-Canadian clarinetist Wesley Ferreira and guitarist Jaxon Williams (Spain/USA) combine the intimacy of an instrumental duo with a larger-than-life energy to bring an adventurous, passionate, and completely original style to the stage. Sprinkle in a dash of comedy, audience interaction, and improvisation, and you’ve got an experience that consistently leaves audiences buzzing. From Flamenco to Fado, Appalachia to Argentina, and guitar slides to clarinet smears, the duo explores the highest limits of what their instruments can do. Their debut album, Breakthrough (Navona, 2022), has been honored by worldwide organizations including the International Portuguese Music Awards (Best Instrumental Performance 2023). Since 2018, Jâca has brought their infectious charm to arts series and music festivals across the USA and worldwide. They have played in prestigious venues including Carnegie Hall and have been featured on national television and radio in Portugal, Ecuador, and throughout the USA.​​​​​​​
