SUMMARY:Michael Formanek Drome Trio
DESCRIPTION:Focused on bassist Michael Formanek’s compositional output\, which The New York Times praises as “graceful in its subversions\,” Drome Trio’s debut Were We Where We Were sprung from musical palindromes that began as graphic scores before being reinterpreted into conventional notation. Rounded out by Chet Doxas saxophones/clarinet and Vinnie Sperrazza drums\, the band’s live set promises heady exhilaration.

SUMMARY:Peggy Lee Band - Early Show
DESCRIPTION:Equally adept in far-out free improv\, the classical rigour of her work with the VSO\, and the arcing melodic textures of her detailed\, emotionally deep compositions\, cellist/composer Peggy Lee exudes mastery in both quietude and fire. Premiering new music alongside selections from its rich back-catalogue\, the Peggy Lee Band builds a sound world where “melodies slide in and out of abstraction; skewed marches butt up against folk songs; chamber music niceties crumble under the assault of funk and psychedelia.” (Georgia Straight). With Dylan van der Schyff drums\, Brad Turner trumpet\, Jeremy Berkman trombone\, Jon Bentley sax\, André Lachance bass\, and guitarists Tony Wilson and Ron Samworth.

SUMMARY:Samara Joy w/ Pasquale Grasso Trio
DESCRIPTION:That someone so young can so completely inhabit the timeless classics of the Great American Songbook borders on the supernatural. NPR calls her debut album “imposing”\, the JazzTimes critics poll just named her Best New Artist\, and she won the Sarah Vaughan International Jazz Vocal Competition three years ago\, at age 19. Velvet-voiced rising star Samara Joy is scarily good—and the hairs on the backs of our necks are all the better for it! She’s joined by Italian-born NYC guitarist Pasquale Grosso—who Pat Metheny recently called “the best guitar player I’ve heard in maybe my entire life”—and his trio-mates Sam Edwards bass and Keith Balla drums.

SUMMARY:Paul Pigat (Cousin Harley) and Stephen Ulrich (Big Lazy)
DESCRIPTION:Two guitar titans\, Vancouver’s Paul Pigat and New York-based Big Lazy frontman Stephen Ulrich\, perform as a duo! Expect to be wowed by a fabulous array of vintage pop\, swing and surf music\, both retro and original. Then Paul and Stephen will be joined by Big Lazy’s rhythm section (Andrew Hall bass\, Yuvall Lion drums) for a set of twang-noir and rockabilly jazz. \n“Paul Pigat\, the gent behind Canada’s Cousin Harley\, is simply one of the top rockabilly players\, not to mention a mean country blueser and bebop jazzer.” – Guitar World \n“The instrumental music of Big Lazy echoes of Hollywood soundtracks–scores from gritty detective flicks\, suspenseful prison breakouts\, and spaghetti Westerns.” – Vintage Guitar Magazine

SUMMARY:Thumbscrew
DESCRIPTION:Royalty of Brooklyn’s avant-garde jazz scene\, MacArthur Fellowship-winning guitarist Mary Halvorson\, drummer/vibraphonist Tomas Fujiwara (Chris Speed)\, and bassist Michael Formanek (Tim Berne) all keep very\, very busy with their myriad individual projects. But in the ever-evolving\, collaborative\, radically telepathic trio Thumbscrew—which celebrates its 10th year as a working band—their distinctive musical personalities perfectly coalesce in intricate compositions and improvisations that push\, pull\, and pin-drop at their will. “The barrage of riffs is both epic and melodic\, the low end beefy and the percussion massive. Expect nothing less than magic from these three avant purveyors” (The Village Voice).

SUMMARY:Aerialists + Moondle
DESCRIPTION:AERIALISTS \nAerialists meld their ferociously creative harmonic sensibilities and deep love of folk traditions into a post-rock-tinged prog/trad sound. Drawing from the wells of Nordic and Gaelic music while adding expansive modernist textures\, this transatlantic quintet takes audiences on “a deep listening and thought-provoking journey\, chock full of high-end musicianship”(Exclaim!). \nMOONDLE \nMagic realism meets jazz-inflected indie pop: inspired by the writings of Jorge Luis Borges\, Vancouver’s Moondle navigates dreamy sonic labyrinths\, enchanting libraries of real and made-up languages\, and lush\, imaginative musical interplay. At turns wistful and transcendent\, Moondle opens the mind and uplifts the soul. Emma Postl vocals\, Thomas Hoeller guitar\, Cary Campbell guitar\, Eli Davidovici bass\, Mili Hong drums. \nSponsored in part by CHMC Granville Island
