Mark Kelso & The Jazz Exiles at The Rex
2023-03-31 20:30 - 22:30 (America/Toronto) | The Rex, 194 Queen Street West, Toronto, Canada
With their original Jazz/Funk/Fusion sound now familiar to Jazz radio stations all around the globe, the Jazz Exiles continue to craft their signature style on ELEMENTALS. Whether laying down the greasy grooves of “Slank” and “Boom Tune” or the melodic approach on “Solace” to the fiery intensity of “Elementals (Water) and “Zig Zag” the Jazz Exiles continue their commitment to playing music that grooves hard, has lots of rhythmic interplay and is all about the melody. This recording is the perfect continuation of what the group debuted on “Stealing From My Youth” back in 2016.
Kelso says, “After playing with the guys now, I have a better understanding of each individual voice so I am able to write more specifically for them yet still allow a lot of creative freedom for them to do their own thing!” Kelso also adds a personal touch on this recording by writing 2 tunes for his young children, Conor & Aoife.
The Jazz Exiles are back and they are here to stay! Check out “ELEMENTALS” on itunes, spotify or on the band website at www.groovydrums.com and fall into their groove and hang on for a fun ride!

Matt Andersen & The Big Bottle of Joy
2023-04-14 20:00 - 23:00 | Massey Hall, 178 Victoria St., Toronto, Canada
Massey Hall presents…
When Matt Andersen steps on stage, he brings a lifetime of music to every note he plays. His latest album, The Big Bottle of Joy, is all about hard-won celebration; a dozen songs infused with raw blues-rock, rollicking Americana, thoughtful folk, and ecstatic gospel. Andersen’s stage presence, buoyed by his spectacular live band (also called The Big Bottle of Joy), is informed by decades of cutting his teeth in dusty clubs, dim-lit bars, and grand theatres all over the world, delivering soulful performances that run the gamut from intimate to wall-shaking. In the studio, he’s always brought the same attention to detail and commitment to craft as he has to his live show, and the result—a multi-faceted and poignant body of work—has led him to amass over 22 million streams on Spotify and 26 million views on YouTube. In addition to headlining major festivals, clubs and theatres throughout North America, Europe and Australia, he has shared the stage and toured with Marcus King, Beth Hart, Marty Stuart, Greg Allman, Tedeschi Trucks Band, Randy Bachman, Jonny Lang, Serena Ryder, and more. Andersen nabbed the 2013 and 2016 European Blues Awards for Best Solo/Acoustic Act, was the first ever Canadian to take home top honours in the solo category at the 2010 International Blues Challenge in Memphis, won the CIMA Road Gold award in 2015, and has won multiple Maple Blues Awards.

Much like a well balanced cocktail, songwriting duo Dizzy & Fay have undeniable chemistry. Inspired by the composers of the American Songbook, Dizzy’s passionate piano and Fay’s romantic voice are the perfect pairing; resulting in original jazz songs that sound fresh, while also echoing timeless standards. Their intuitive musical charm is captivating on record and on stage where audiences are fast becoming lifelong fans.
Based in Toronto and Fenwick, Ont., these two songsmiths arrived on the Canadian jazz scene with their debut album Songbook, which received a glowing review from The Wholenote and made several top 20 in 2021 lists.
Now, just a year later, Dizzy & Fay have released their sophomore album Hooked. Like Songbook, it too features all original compositions, but with the addition of bass, drums, horns, and a 28-piece philharmonic orchestra on selected tracks. It’s clear that with two albums in two years, the Dizzy & Fay Songbook is only just beginning.

The Shuffle Demons at Koerner Hall
2023-05-06 20:00 - 23:00 | Koerner Hall, 273 Bloor Street West, Toronto, Canada
With special guests Skratch Bastid and Caity Gyorgy
High-energy virtuosic jazz and funk, and over-the-top stage antics have thrilled audiences for decades since their 1980s MuchMusic hit “Spadina Bus.”
The legend of The Shuffle Demons is well known to Canadians. Beginning in September 1984 with veteran street sax player Demon Richard Underhill pleasing the pedestrian multitudes at the corner of Yonge and Bloor in Toronto, The Shuffle Demons quickly evolved into an immensely popular street band. In 1986, John Gunn and Rob Fresco directed “Spadina Bus,” the video that became a MuchMusic hit, and was quickly followed by the hilarious “Out of My House, Roach” (directed by Joel Goldberg). The Demons caught fire, sold more independent albums than anyone up to that point (15,000), were nominated for a Juno Award, won five CASBY Awards, toured like mad, and released their second album, Bop Rap, which featured a very popular rendition of “Hockey Night in Canada.”
This band is genre bending, highly visually entertaining, funny, and best of all, their eye catching, crowd-pleasing stunts are backed up by incredibly solid musicianship. Over the course of their illustrious career The Shuffle Demons have released 10 CDs, four hit videos, won several music awards, done numerous TV and radio appearances, and toured nationally and internationally. The band continues the tradition today with a great line-up of players that includes Juno Award winner Richard Underhill (sax & vox), Matt Lagan and Kelly Jefferson (saxes), Mike Downes (bass), and Stich Wynston (drums). Expect the same exciting, no holds barred performances that feature wild romps in the crowd, free jazz moments, danceable funk, poetry, killer solos, and more.
For the past two decades, Skratch Bastid has been rocking parties and wowing crowds all over the globe, becoming one of the world’s best known and most loved DJs. Known for his electric stage presence, technical prowess, and versatile selections that span the complete musical spectrum – from hip hop to house, disco to dancehall, reggae to funk and back again – Bastid is a true crowd favourite with an unrivaled ability to create unforgettable moments with music.
Caity Gyorgy is a two-time Juno Award-winning Canadian vocalist who is known for singing bebop and swing music. She has performed at popular clubs and jazz festivals across Canada and the USA and has worked and recorded with incredible musicians and groups including Christine Jensen, Pat LaBarbera, Jocelyn Gould, Ira Coleman, Allison Au, Bryn Roberts and Postmodern Jukebox, to name a few. In addition to performing, Caity is also an avid writer and composes songs in the style of the Great American Songbook. Her compositions have been sung by other vocalists around the world, and she has released several albums of original and standard music.
After the concert, enjoy a beverage and more music at the Postlude Performance.

Bursting with the optimism of new beginnings, with a new drummer, a new record label and a subtly updated and developed sound, the band are ushering in a more sonically liberated era.
Everything Is Going to Be OK is born from a time of turbulence and loss. During a personally difficult period for the band, including deep personal loss and mourning, the studio offered the band a sanctuary from real life. The resulting project draws its strength from a shared understanding and empathy. Through our hardships, together, we will emerge stronger; everything is going to be ok.

Cassatt - McNicoll @ The AGO
2023-05-31 - 2023-09-05 | Art Gallery of Ontario, 317 Dundas St W, Toronto, ON, M5T 1G4
This groundbreaking exhibition brings together for the first time the work of two extraordinary women Impressionist painters, Mary Cassatt (American, 1844-1926) and Helen McNicoll (Canadian, 1879-1915). Renowned for their depictions of modern womanhood, their work had a profound impact on the development and proliferation of Impressionism in North America.
This original and eye-opening exhibition draws upon the AGO’s significant collection of McNicoll works and it is the first in Canadian history to centre Cassatt’s paintings and works on paper. Educated in Philadelphia and Montreal, Cassatt and McNicoll both left North America for Europe in their early 20s to study and pursue art professionally. Cassatt was an original member of the Impressionist movement in Paris, and a generation later, McNicoll contributed to the movement’s evolution and spread around the globe.
Curated by Caroline Shields, Curator of European Art at the AGO, and showcasing more than 65 artworks including paintings, prints and sketch books, this innovative exhibition will be accompanied by a fully illustrated publication.
