1531 Johnston St, Vancouver, BC V6H 3R9

Vibrating somewhere between a 60s Blue Note record and a video game from the 90s, Jonny Tobin’s fat synth-funk playfully collides with abstract jazz undertones to create introspective, dance-heavy West Coast lowrider grooves. The Vancouver-based GRAMMY and JUNO-nominated keyboardist/producer has graced hundreds of tracks from artists like NYC-based Sarah Kang and breakout socially-conscious California rapper D. Smoke, scored placements for Vogue and the Utah Jazz, and been a long-time fixture of the funkiest parts of the Vancouver scene. With Tristan Paxton guitar, Max Zipursky keyboards, Nate Drobner bass, Shaquille Headley drums and electronics.

Ocean Art Works is sponsored in part by CMHC Granville Island and is part of the Granville Island Jazz series.
