Every year, Coastal Jazz produces a report that summarizes the impact the TD Vancouver International Jazz Festival has on our communities, the economy, and the cultural landscape. This year the report includes a dive into what it took to produce a large-scale festival during a pandemic, accessibility & representation, notes from the programming team, many beautiful graphs, and more. It's available on our website now, and we'd love if you checked it out! Link in bio to download!

It's National Dog Day, so we're celebrating all the four-legged friends on the Coastal Jazz team. Sure, yes, it's National Dog Day and some of these are cats, but jazz is about breaking the rules, yeah?

Clockwise, we have sleeping baby Boots; Pepper, staring lovingly at some turkey; Migsy's withering stare; Ernesto in the holiday spirit; little kitten Max; and Sally the wonderdog being Very Normal.

We love this shot by @jonbenjaminphotography because it captures one part of what it was like behind the scenes of our 100+ live streams—each show was filmed by our hardworking team of videographers & tech staff, without whom the Festival would not have been possible. Our thanks go out to them for all their time & effort!

“I’m blessed, in a way, that my Korean culture is getting more exposed. Before I felt like I had to explain a lot about myself, but now it seems like a lot of people want to know more, which is really exciting. Because of that curiosity I feel an excitement to share this music.”

First up—@deedanielsmusic took the stage at Performance Works for a truly unforgettable performance at #vanjazzfest this year. In an interview with Alexander Varty for @stirvancouver, she said:

“I know this music is supposed to be out there,” she adds. “And I just feel blessed, because my greatest desire—and this has been going on for years—is [to be] a catalyst for 'source’. Anybody else can call source whatever they want. Call it God, love, the universe, all that is, your higher self, or nothing—it doesn’t matter. But I am a catalyst—and it continues!”
