SUMMARY:Joe Rainey & String Quartet
DESCRIPTION:1218 Cartwright St\, Vancouver\, BC V6H 3R8 \n“You’ve never heard anything quite like Joe Rainey’s avant-garde Pow Wow music” – Pitchfork \nGrowing up as a Red Lake Ojibwe in the city of Minneapolis\, five hours south of the reserve\, Pow Wow singer and audio documenter Joe Rainey has always moved between cultures. With experimental electronic producer/multi-instrumentalist Andrew Broder (Bon Iver\, Fog) and a Vancouver-based string quartet\, Rainey makes the liminal sublime\, radically fusing “layers of powwow songs to industrial-strength drums and blizzards of static” (New York Times) to create an enveloping avant-garde Pow Wow music that defies comparison. \nPeggy Lee cello\, Jesse Zubot violin/viola\, Marina Hasselberg cello\, Parmela Attariwala violin.

SUMMARY:William Chernoff Trio
DESCRIPTION:1531 Johnston St\, Vancouver\, BC V6H 3R9 \nBassist William Chernoff’s trio with guitarist Francis Henson and drummer Carson Tworow is unfussy\, “refreshingly accessible music” (All About Jazz). Although Will’s warmly melodic repertoire leans firmly straight-ahead\, the group can venture beyond swing into ECM-inspired sounds of the Steve Swallow and Bill Frisell variety.

SUMMARY:Bruce Freedman's COLLAGE
DESCRIPTION:1601 Johnston St\, Vancouver\, BC V6H 3R9 \nTransposing his cut-up visual art practice over to music\, saxophonist Bruce Freedman’s COLLAGE disassembles and reassembles musical elements in ways that can surprise the musicians as much as the audience. With Josh Zubot violin\, Jared Burrows guitar\, Clyde Reed bass\, and Kenton Loewen drums\, Freedman’s controlled chaos cuts from intense energy to spacious reflection.

SUMMARY:Sona Jobarteh
DESCRIPTION:1218 Cartwright St\, Vancouver\, BC V6H 3R8 \nWith her shimmering 21-string Kora melodies and heart-swelling vocals\, Sona Jobarteh is “a griot for a new generation of West Africans” (BBC). \nBreaking from a seven-century-old tradition that reserved the instrument for males of a hereditary musical family\, Jobarteh is not only the very first female Kora virtuoso\, but also a deft innovator who “blends traditional music\, blues\, and Afropop to impressive effect” (The Guardian). Jobarteh has some eclectic credits of late\, from scoring the Idris Elba thriller Beast and co-writing a track on LL Cool J’s new Q Tip-produced album\, to selling out venues like the Barbican in London and the Seine Musicale in Paris. Sona’s humanitarian messages aren’t confined to music—she’s also a leading activist for social change and education reform in Africa\, delivering potent speeches to the UN\, the WTO\, and UNICEF and founding The Gambia Academy. \nWith one ear on the family’s historic reputation\, one on the all-important future\, and her heart in both\, she’s helping build a more equitable\, musically rich world for the next generation.

SUMMARY:Chris Botti with special guest Michael Kaeshammer
DESCRIPTION:Chris Botti \nMultiple Billboard jazz chart #1s\, RIAA-certified Gold and Platinum records\, numerous nominations and a GRAMMY Award for Best Pop Instrumental—how could Chris Botti possibly top all of that? Well\, with “a trumpet sound that suggests the softer side of luminosity\, the realm of sunsets and half-moons and low-wattage incandescence”\, the largest-selling American instrumental artist’s “studio output is to his live show what a votive candle is to a fireworks display” (New York Times). \nThrough a string of stellar albums as a leader\, plus work with an encyclopedia of pop and jazz A-listers—including Sting\, Barbra Streisand\, Tony Bennett\, Lady Gaga\, Yo-Yo Ma\, Michael Bublé\, Paul Simon\, Joni Mitchell\, Herbie Hancock\, Andrea Bocelli\, and even Frank Sinatra—Botti has thoroughly established himself as a clarion voice in contemporary music. Whether he’s calling upon firepower or finesse\, Chris Botti is a showman\, artist\, and bandleader extraordinaire. \n\nMichael Kaeshammer \nMichael Kaeshammer isn’t so much a piano player as a piano whisperer\, able to coax dazzling\, kaleidoscopic sounds from the instrument in a way few can rival. The German-born\, BC-based Kaeshammer released his debut album Blue Keys back in 1996\, at the tender age of twenty-one. Countless collaborations\, solo records\, JUNO nominations and Western Canadian Music Awards later\, he unveils the eclectic and energetic Turn It Up. It’s very much a post-lockdown record\, with Kaeshammer’s uplifting storytelling and pop-driven crossover of classical\, jazz\, blues and boogie-woogie beckoning us out of isolation and into shared joy. \nMichael’s performance is presented with additional support from WAVE 98.3. \n

SUMMARY:Zoh Amba & Chris Corsano with Lisa Cay Miller
DESCRIPTION:Due to bad weather and airline cancellations\, Zoh Amba and Chris Corsano’s 9:00PM appearance with Lisa Cay Miller at Revue Stage tonight has been replaced with Joe Rainey. \n1601 Johnston St\, Vancouver\, BC V6H 3R9 \nOne of the brightest new stars in avant-jazz\, NYC-based composer/saxophonist/flutist Zoh Amba’s music is “a chaotic spiritual exploration\, a path to enlightenment strewn with skronking wails” (Stereogum). Though conservatory-trained\, she developed her sound in the forest near her Tennessee home\, giving folk melodies free run alongside influences from uncompromising players like Albert Ayler and David S. Ware. John Zorn produced her 2022 debut\, and she’s collaborated with Immanuel Wilkins\, Jim White (Dirty Three)\, William Parker\, and more. Amba’s joined by drummer and regular collaborator Chris Corsano—who’s brought “impressive chops and vivid imagination” (JazzTimes) to his work with fellow iconoclasts Björk\, Thurston Moore\, Jim O’Rourke\, and Nels Cline—and the striking and investigative Vancouver pianist Lisa Cay Miller. \nThis show is part of our Granville Island Jazz series

SUMMARY:Joe Rainey
DESCRIPTION:1601 Johnston St\, Vancouver\, BC V6H 3R9 \nJoe Rainey is a Pow Wow singer. On Niineta\, he demonstrates his command of the Pow Wow style\, descending from Indigenous singing that’s been heard across the waters of what is now called Minnesota for centuries. Depending on the song or the pattern\, his voice can celebrate or console\, welcome or intimidate\, wake you up with a start or lull your babies to sleep. Each note conveys a clear message\, no matter the inflection: We’re still here. We were here before you were\, and we never left.
