Jamie Gutfreund & CELEBRITY STAGE PERFORMERS Carmen Corcoz Carmen Corcoz is a singer, songwriter & actress who has an original soulful vibe combined with melodic pop vocals, and beautiful hard-hitting lyrics. A voice & heart of gold. Romanian born singer and songwriter inspires through her meaningful lyrics and universal sound. Drawing influences from the likes of Adele, Rihanna & Bruno Mars, Carmen creates a soulful mixture of rhythm & pop music, securing her place as the next International Mega Star. As a young musician Carmen wondered about the origins of music. Becoming a historian of jazz, soul, blues & classical music, she understood why it was not only important to her, but to all of us. While singing came naturally for Carmen, she found herself firmly rooted in many areas of art. Landing acting roles, dancing professionally, & getting her poetry published at the age of 13, opportunities came knocking at her door. Inspiring through music became a calling for Carmen. In 2011, Carmen released her first EP "INSPIRED" in affiliation with SickKids Foundation. Donating proceeds from song downloads were given to the sick children at the Toronto Hospital in Canada. Carmen is an ambassador for sick kids and a great role model, sticking true to her fans. Her goal is to continue inspiring people through music and reach out to those in need. "I believe art can cure us, a poem, a song, even a picture can change our life."-Carmen Corcoz For more information on Carmen Corcoz, visit www.carmencorcoz.com.

The Imbayakunas "The Imbayakunas" - Keeping Andean Traditions Alive Through Song "When I made the decision to form 'The Imbayakunas' music group, I knew my ancestors would be proud", remarks Patricio Chiza. Mr.Chiza is the musical director and founder of The Imbayakunas Music Group from Ecuador. "I come from a strong and vibrant Native Andean culture. Both my mother and father raised myself and my siblings to understand and appreciate our traditions. Although there was and still exists racism against Native people, my parents never relinquished their pride and dignity in the face of adversity and discrimination." In 1998, Patricio Chiza began his dream of forming a group that would highlight the wondrous sound of the Andes. Each musician is from Ecuador and shares a love of performing. Their music continues to evolve and can be described as a World Music fusion between traditional Andean sounds and contemporary Latin rhythms. The music of The Imbayakunas is infectious; Latin American and North American audiences alike are drawn to the musical mix of pan flutes, guitar, violin charango and drums. The Imbayakunas Music Group has worked hard to make their mark as entertainers. They have gained much notoriety while performing at various festivals, private functions, shopping centres and benefit events. Through their work over the years, they have become the best known local presenters of Andean music in Canada. The Imbayakunas have recorded and released 17 CD's to date and showcase a wide repertoire of musical sounds spanning from traditional Andean San Juans to cover versions of classics such as "Hotel California" by The Eagles. "Anytime I have the opportunity to show the world the beauty that is Andean Music, it is a privilege and my pleasure", says Patricio Chiza. The Imbayakunas success is a dream come true.

  • Principals Involved in Lucid Plan Aren?T Done with Aurora
    This page was exported from - The Auroran Export date: Thu Sep 30 6:36:34 2021 / +0000 GMT Principals involved in Lucid plan aren?t done with Aurora By Brock Weir With Aurora Live! dead in the water, enough time has passed for heads to cool and assess the situation. But George Roche, founder of Lucid Productions, the group that brought forward the Aurora Live! festival isn't completely done with Aurora. 2014, he said, is definitely a possibility. ?I would love to [bid on a festival] if we can get the ?Wild, Wild West' politics and the cynicism projected by [Councillor Chris Ballard] which I believe rises out of the treatment unto the Aurora Jazz Fest organizers,? said Mr. Roche, referring to the war of words between himself and the Councillor while the festival was still on the table. ?We always had a great feeling of working with Aurora and nothing has changed. When things go a little bit sideways obviously politicians start to protect themselves and their own credibility within the Town, but in this case the credibility wasn't protected.? Credibility also took a hit, he claims when Councillor Abel began to get ?demanding? on which bands should take to the stage and how much they should be paid, as well as what he describes as a ?spectacle? being made out of their references. ?2013 is out of the question [for a festival],? he said. ?We're very sorry it didn't go the way we had proposed. It wasn't anything to do with our actions, certainly being the lead writer and the pitchmen for the plan, I certainly wouldn't have done anything to hijack my own proposal.
