SUMMARY:Dálava
DESCRIPTION:Led by vocalist/keyboardist Julia Úlehla and guitarist Aram Bajakian (Lou Reed\, John Zorn)\, the “utterly captivating” (Vancouver Sun) Dálava takes Czech folk melodies transcribed over 100 years ago by Úlehla’s great-grandfather and places them in a compelling contemporary context. Cinematic and wide-ranging\, the music of Dálava is beautifully rendered and hauntingly expressive. Their deeply evocative most recent album Understories explores uncharted territories of sound. \n\nCoastal Jazz & False Creek Ferries present: Band on a Boat. The event takes place by Canoe Bridge pedestrian bridge in Olympic Village. The timing of this event is only as exact as the tides.

SUMMARY:Tomoki Sanders Quartet with Todd Stewart Trio
DESCRIPTION:Tomoki Sanders is a free electron who greedily explores Great Black Music\, urban music\, electronic\, and the avant-garde. Child of the legendary Pharoah Sanders\, Tomoki has been making their mark for the past five years with Kassa Overall‘s supergroup\, and as an active member of the new generation of New York musicians that they present during Tomo Tuesdays\, a vector of openness and diversity reflective of Tomoki’s dual Afro-American and Japanese culture and their non-binarity. \nBorn in New York City in 1994\, Tomoki (they/them) started playing percussion at age 4\, and clarinet at 6. At 10\, their father gave them a saxophone. They had their first gig at 13\, and began performing in schools\, venues\, and clubs around Japan’s Kanto Region\, before studying performance and music production at the prestigious Berklee College of Music. On their first album\, to be released in 2026\, they recreate the link with the rich hours of the Impulse! label and\, with all their fantastic personality\, rush through the door re-opened by Kamasi Washington and Shabaka Hutchings. \nSanders has performed with their late father\, as well as with the Jack DeJohnette Trio. They currently live in New York\, performing alongside artists such as Moses Sumney\, Ravi Coltrane\, Tatsuya Nakamura\, Taylor McFerrin\, Mark de Clive-Lowe\, KYOTO JAZZ SEXTET\, George Garzone\, Hajime Yoshizawa\, ROOT SOUL\, Fumio Itabashi\, TOKU\, Trap Music Orchestra\, and more. \nTodd Stewart Trio \nDrummer Todd Stewart has been making quite a name for themself on the Vancouver creative music scene\, whether alongside contemporaries like Feven Kidane and Dean Thiessen\, or with veterans like Chris Davis\, Brad Turner\, and Chris Gestrin. In a trio with Cole Woodland bass and Ruthie Ha tenor/soprano saxophones\, Stewart brings passion and melodic sensitivity to detailed post-bop arrangements and expressive original tunes informed by the likes of John Coltrane\, Brad Mehldau\, and Immanuel Wilkins. \nPresented in association with Queer Arts Festival.
