31St Annual TD Vancouver International Jazz Festival Eight Major Concerts at the Vogue Theatre and Christ Church Cathedral FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 31st annual TD Vancouver International Jazz Festival Eight Major Concerts at The Vogue Theatre and Christ Church Cathedral Tickets at www.coastaljazz.ticketfly.com Telephone 1. 888.732.1682 5 Concert Presentations during The Vogue Theatre Series: HIROMI: THE TRIO PROJECT (with Alicia Hansen) June 24 The Vogue Theatre @ 8pm $80/69 All In “She’s to the piano what Hendrix and Van Halen are to the guitar. Yeah, she’s that good. ” All About Jazz Ever since the release of her 2003 debut album, Another Mind, Japanese pianist/composer Uehara Hiromi has electrified audiences worldwide. “One of the most exciting groups working in any genre today,” writes Downbeat. With electric bass master Anthony Jackson (Chick Corea, Steely Dan) and hard-hitting drummer Simon Phillips (Al DiMeola, David Gilmour), this fierce but playful trio blends percussive post-bop, proggy polyrhythms, mesmerizing counterpoint melodies, swing, and rock--all accompanied by Hiromi’s joyful offhand vocalizations and gleeful bouncing off the piano bench! OLIVER JONES TRIO (with Oliver Gannon Quartet) June 25 The Vogue Theatre @ 8pm $69 All In At 81 years young, the masterful Canadian pianist Oliver Jones remains “one of the most consistently inventive and technically awesome mainstream jazz pianists on the planet” (All About Jazz). A JUNO and Governor General’s Award-winning Officer of the Order of Canada, Jones is as decorated as he is beloved. A strong musical kinship with lifelong friend Oscar Peterson can be heard in his phenomenal swing and bebop shredding, while his Bach and Chopin influences find expression in the arching emotion of his restrained, tender ballads. Oliver Jones retires from touring in the fall of 2016 so don’t miss his top shelf trio— Eric Lagacé bass, and Jim Doxas drums. THE LEGENDARY DOWNCHILD BLUES BAND (with Steve Hill) June 27 The Vogue Theatre @ 8pm $63/52 All In Flip, flop, and fly with The Legendary Downchild Blues Band! For more than four decades, this multiple Maple Blues and JUNO award-winning Toronto powerhouse has been tearing up stages with its rollicking, sax-driven jump blues. Led by guitarist/vocalist/songwriter Donnie “Mr. Downchild” Walsh–who also lays down some serious train-a-comin’ harp!–this internationally renowned juggernaut is “one of the greatest blues bands in the world. Period” (Toronto Star). The immense charisma and smoking hot take on Chicago and Delta blues inspired Dan Aykroyd to create The Blues Brothers who then covered Downchild classics like “Everything I Need (Almost)” and “Shotgun Blues.” Come get some full-tilt blues direct from the source!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE JOE LOVANO CLASSIC QUARTET (with Matt Choboter Trio) June 28 The Vogue Theatre @ 8pm $69 All In A massive force in jazz for four decades, Grammy Award-winning saxophonist Joe Lovano cut his teeth in early gigs with Dr. Lonnie Smith, Chet Baker, Rashied Ali and Paul Motian before emerging as a leader in his own right. Versatile and omnivorous in his collaborations, he’s worked with a Who’s Who of jazz stalwarts, including John Scofield, Herbie Hancock, Dave Holland, Bill Frisell, and Dave Douglas. “Expertly balancing heartfelt melodicism and cerebral harmonic improvisation” (AllMusic), Lovano is constantly creative, constantly exploring. With rising star pianist Lawrence Fields, and the in-demand New York-based rhythm section of Bulgarian bassist Peter Slavov, and Kosovo transplant Lamy Istrefi drums. GREGORY PORTER (with Bruno Hubert Trio) July 2 The Vogue Theatre @ 8pm $80/69 All In “Massive vocal power offset by a rich tone and delicate control, his interpretations flit between jazz and soul.”—MOJO Equal parts Bill Withers and Nat King Cole, Grammy Award-winning vocalist Gregory Porter can moan a soulful blues and dart through a playful, stomping jazz number with equal power. With a smooth and smoky baritone, Porter continues the traditions of soul and jazz artists of the past, but sets himself apart from mere revivalists with his exceptional songwriting. His insightful lyrics and stirring melodies are sincere, romantic, and deeply grooving. This enormous talent raised the roof at the 2013 Festival. With Chip Crawford piano, Emanuel Harrold drums, Aaron James bass, Tivon Pennicott sax. 3 Concert Presentations during the Christ Church Cathedral Series: JACKY TERRASSON TRIO June 27 Christ Church Cathedral @ 7:30 pm $46 All In “It takes sharp musical intelligence as well as chutzpah to make Duke Ellington’s Caravan morph into Michael Jackson’s Don’t Stop Till You Get Enough. Jacky Terrasson has both in spades.” – The Telegraph French pianist Jacky Terrasson’s boldly physical playing makes him “one of the few post-bop pianists whose amiable virtuosity can recall Oscar Peterson”(The New York Times), while echoes of Ahmad Jamal inform his almost impossibly light touch and “sublime sense of space” (London Jazz News). Between the sly eclecticism of his jazz and pop re-interpretations, the virtuosity of his rhythmic variations, and his infectious energy, Terrasson is a joyfully masterful artist that blurs lines and stirs souls! With Burniss Travis bass, Jamire Williams drums.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE TORD GUSTAVSEN HYMNS AND VISIONS WITH SIMIN TANDER AND JARLE VESPESTAD June 29 Christ Church Cathedral @ 7:30 pm $46 All In The sonically spare and alluring sound world of award-winning Norwegian pianist/composer Tord Gustavsen “draws the listener in so completely – making us consider each note, each small gesture in its ethereal, shimmering whole.” (DownBeat). His new project Hymns and Visions explores and interprets ancient Norwegian hymns translated into the hauntingly beautiful Pashto language, as well as newly composed settings of Sufi poetry. A rising star in European jazz, Afghan-German vocalist Simin Tander hums, sighs, and bends notes tenderly, arching upwards from Gustavsen’s lyrical minimalism and subtle electronics, and the impressionist drumming of Jarle Vespestad (formerly of Supersilent). COMMON GROUNDS: ALAN MATHESON SEPTET AND PACIFIC BAROQUE ORCHESTRA - ALEXANDER WEIMANN MUSIC DIRECTOR June 30 Christ Church Cathedral @ 7:30pm $46 All In Two Ensembles. Two starkly different genres. In this remarkable project, a Baroque ensemble led by JUNO Award-winning harpsichordist/chamber organist Alexander Weimann and a brilliant jazz septet led by trumpeter/composer Alan Matheson explore threads running from the 1600’s through today’s creative jazz scene. Bringing together disparate musical communities, the two groups will perform works from their respective fields as well as pieces written for the “common ground” of both. In this timeless meeting place, the long melodic lines of Ellington and Strayhorn echo Handel and Bach, while the endlessly creative practice of “theme and variation” is a keystone of jazz improvisation, of the Baroque and, one could argue, of life.

  • Harpo Records the Backtrack Blues Band, One of Florida's Longest
    Harpo Records 1535 Dr. M.L. King Jr. Street North St. Petersburg, FL 33704 [email protected] (727) 502-5000 or (727) 515-8444 October 5, 2016 The Backtrack Blues Band, one of Florida's longest running and most accomplished blues bands, is enjoying great success with its new album, “Way Back Home.” Charting at #8 on American Blues Rock Radio and receiving airplay in Europe and Australia, the CD is gaining great recognition for this stellar, authentic blues quintet. Music critics from around the world have given "Way Back Home" exceptional reviews, admiring the band's performances and original songwriting. This project brings excitement and authenticity to the music, demonstrating a deep understanding of the genre, while infusing joy and creativity into the songs. Here are some recent quotes from industry experts, including Elmore Magazine and Blues Music Magazine: It’s about time you all get to know Sonny Charles and the Backtrack Blues Band. The first track of an album can tell you a lot about a band and what to expect from the ten or so songs to come. On Way Back Home, this Tampa, Florida band’s fifth release, we start off with a trip to Eleuthera in the Bahamas (“Goin’ to Eleuthera”) — and if “beach blanket blues” is a genre, this is the band who originated it. This is a blues band for sure, but some uptempo jazz and a bit of classic swing come through here as well. Whether you’re relaxing by the ocean in Ft. Lauderdale (where this album was mastered) or throwing back some happy hour specials at a dirt road bar, Way Back Home should be you day’s soundtrack.
