Some suggestions –
July 9-13 (Ottawa locals in italics)
Wednesday, July 9
David Maxwell &
friends – “David
Maxwell has amassed an enormous resume throughout the years playing piano with
some of the greatest and well-known musicians in the blues. David plays many
styles of blues, jazz and improvised music, but he is best known for his
soulful virtuosity and unmatched ability to reach the heart of post-war Chicago
Blues. Through his work, he has gained the respect of artists, critics and fans
and has established a reputation as one of the finest blues pianists alive.” http://www.davidmaxwell.com/
Selwyn Birchwood – “Selwyn
Birchwood, Florida’s rising young blues fireball, is a guitar and
lap-steel-playing bundle of pure energy. He delivers his original songs with a
revival tent preacher’s fervour and a natural storyteller’s charisma made all
the more impactful by his raw, unvarnished vocals. Birchwood plays high-octane
blues – at once deeply rooted, funky and up-to-the-minute – with true passion
and honest emotion.” http://www.selwynbirchwood.com/
Trombone Shorty
& Orleans Avenue – “New Orleans native Trombone Shorty is the bandleader and frontman
of Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue, a hard-edged funk band that employs
hip-hop beats, rock dynamics and improvisation in a jazz tradition. Good things
continue to happen for Trombone Shorty, thanks to his virtuosity, his
dedication, and his ability to move people. That he pursues his passion with
such humility and unpretentiousness makes his still-unfolding story as
compelling as the music he's making along the way.” http://www.tromboneshorty.com/
Thursday, July 10
Firebelly
– “Firebelly
is a Modern Soul ensemble outfit dedicated to fostering Blues & Roots music
into the future, while respecting its rich & timeless traditions. Its
members are fueled by a collective passion to make great music.”
Long Tall Deb – “It’s
not just her honey and molasses-soaked voice … or her keen, nuanced songwriting
that blend experience with a hint of mysticism (Long Tall Deb’s Texas/Mexico
border roots are never far away from her songs). What Long Tall Deb brings to
the studio and the stage is nothing short of one-of-a-kind. She goes beyond the
“my-man-done-me-wrong” songs to tell stories that are deep, full-bodied and a
reflection of who she is.” http://longtalldeb.com/
John Mayall – ‘The
Godfather of British Blues’, John Mayall is a singer, guitarist, harmonica player,
organist and songwriter, whose musical career spans over fifty years. His band,
the Bluesbreakers, founded in the 1960s, has included some of the most famous
blues and blues rock musicians. To quote Eric Clapton, “John Mayall has actually run an incredibly great school for
musicians."
Friday, July 11
Canadian Women’s
Songwriter Showcase with Kelly Sloan, Kelly Prescott and Shannon Rose – “… three
of Ottawa’s finest singer-songwriters. Kelly Sloan’s music is undoubtedly hard
to label. Her music has been described as “soul-infused folk”, “Canadiana
flare” and “country-roots rock”. Kelly Prescott is one of the lead singers of
the alt-country band, The Claytones. They have a musical chemistry few groups
can match with tight, three-part harmonies, beautiful arrangements and a warm
stage presence. Drawing on influences of classic pop, soul, country, punk and
rock music, Shannon Rose & the Thorns focus on melody and songcraft. Her
voice is rich and captivating and she and her band perform with soulful
conviction.”
Thornetta Davis – “Singer,
songwriter, recording artist and actress – for over 15 years, this
multi-talented Detroiter has … performed over two hundred shows a year with
grace and stamina. Her voice is strong, commanding, melodic and smooth. She
tells her stories with incredible delivery and leaves her audiences wanting
more.” http://www.thornettadavis.com/
John Németh &
the Bo-Keys – “Drawing on the classic soul, blues, and R&B
influences that inform his stunning vocal style, John has crafted a timeless slice
of American music. He re-visits the inspired sounds of the ‘50s and ‘60s, when
Chicago blues were adding funk and rock to the mix, that got him hooked on
music in the first place.”
The Texas Horns – “It's always a
pleasure to have The Texas Horns performing at the RBC Bluesfest. For most
music lovers there’s nothing like the full sound of a great blues band with
horns. But, for many touring acts it’s not always feasible to bring in a horn section.
With the Texas Horns as perennial guest stars at the festival, many of the
performers have the luxury of a set with the 'House Horns'. This unit has the
ability to adapt on the fly, often minutes before the performance. This is what
leads us to offer Kaz and The Texas Horns a permanent 'residency' at the RBC
Bluesfest. Aside from
stage-hopping and sitting in for impromptu performances with a wide variety of
bands throughout the festival, the Texas Horns—featuring Kaz Kazanoff on tenor
sax, Al Gomez on trumpet, and John Mills on baritone sax—will also be fronting
their very own set, while hosting a stellar cast of 'fest favourites on drums,
bass, strings and keys.”
Saturday, July 12
Wicked Grin – “Combine a lead singer/songwriter's fresh
take on gritty blues and killer guitar, a veteran harp player, raucous and
wailing in all the right places, a super tight bassist, and a hot young drummer
and you get full-tilt blues with a groove that just won't quit: Blues With
Bite!” Ottawa Blues Society’s entry in last
year’s International Blues Challenge. http://www.wickedgrin.ca/
Sugar
Ray & the Bluetones – Soulful vocalist and talented harmonica
player, Sugar Ray Norcia has fronted the Bluetones since the mid-‘70s, as well
as a stint with Roomful of Blues. This five piece Chicago style blues
band lists as band interests - playing great Blues Music for people throughout
the world. And they do! http://www.sugarrayandthebluetones.com/
Little Freddie King
– A
cousin of Lightnin’ Hopkins, his style was based on Freddie King, although his
approach to country blues is original. He has played the New Orleans Jazz
& Heritage Festival for 42 years, is a member of the Louisiana Music
Hall of Fame and was three times selected Blues Performer of the Year in New
Orleans. http://www.littlefreddieking.com/
Paul Oscher – “Award-winning blues singer, songwriter, recording
artist and multi-instrumentalist (harmonica, guitar, piano, melodia and bass
harp), he first came to national attention as Muddy Waters’ harmonica player,
1967-72, the first white musician in the world to become a full-time member of
a black blues band of this stature.” http://www.pauloscher.com/
Thornetta Davis –
see Friday, July 11
Darrell Nulisch – “Blues
and soul man Darrell Nulisch’s music showcases his incredible blues harmonica
skills and his passionate voice. He has the kind of voice legends are made of –
big, strong and supple, rippling with élan and coloured by the dust of his
native Texas. It’s a timeless instrument, yet Nulisch keeps it firmly in the
present ….”
Sunday, July 13
Darrell Nulisch –
see Saturday, July 12
Paul Oscher – see
Saturday, July 12
Elvin Bishop – “Elvin Bishop has been travelling the Blues road longer
than most, and he’s got the stories to prove it …. Stops along the way include
his work as a founding member of the groundbreaking Paul Butterfield Blues Band
in the early ‘60s, recordings with legends such as Clifton Chenier, John Lee
Hooker, and The Allman Brothers, and Pop success with his own 1976 smash hit
“Fooled Around and Fell In Love”. Bishop’s long and varied career has included
plenty of side trips along the way as well, from deep down gutbucket Blues
played in smoky South Side Chicago taverns, to raucous roadhouse R&B, to
good time Rock & Roll on concert stages and festivals around the world. And
at every stage along the way, he’s instilled all of his music with passion,
creativity, and a healthy helping of wisdom, wit, and good humor.” http://elvinbishopmusic.com/
**********
J.P. Soars & the Red Hots
Rainbow Bistro, 76 Murray Street
Thursday, July 10, 8 pm -10:30 pm
JP Soars is not a typical blues guitarist. He has a
diverse musical background that encompasses a multitude of influences. "I
love T-bone Walker, Jesse May Hemphill, Wes Montgomery, Django Reinhardt, Muddy
Waters, Johnny Guitar Watson, Guitar Slim and Louis Jordan. But I also love
Tito Puente, Miles Davis, Hank Williams, Black Sabbath and Slayer." Soars
toured the globe and recorded several records with some of the most extreme
metal bands in the world before finding his home in the blues! It is these
attributes that are giving Soars an instantaneously recognizable style.

JazzWorks Sunday Jam
Carleton Tavern, 223 Armstrong Street
First Sunday of the month, 2-5 pm; cover $5; free admission for students
First Sunday of the month, 2-5 pm; cover $5; free admission for students
JazzWorks has started a
second monthly jam series. Besides the current evening jam on the third
Thursday of each month, it also runs an afternoon jam on the first Sunday of
the month. Charley Gordon writes: "One of the hopes is that this afternoon
jam session will be attractive to students who, for some reason, generally
avoid taverns on weekday nights. Depending on attendance and other factors, we
might do some experimenting with format in this new jam."
Host Band: The
Kavchak/Kubelka/Menard Trio
Michael Kavchak - bass
Anthony Kubelka - piano
Daniel Menard - drums
These students all are
members of the Ottawa Junior Jazz Band, and of the Bells Corners Academy Jazz
Camp Band where they work with Yves Laroche.
Whether you're a jazz lover,
or jazz instrumentalist or vocalist at any level, you are most welcome to join
the fun with the improvised blend of the familiar and unexpected.
Musicians of intermediate level and up are encouraged to participate in the
jam. If you will be calling a tune, you must bring at least three copies
of lead sheets in your concert C key for other musicians, and charts for Bb and
Eb instruments would be appreciated by horn players.
The jam sessions are
coordinated by Alf Warnock at: alf.warnock@gmail.com .
Please contact Alf if you would like to volunteer as MC or assist with
breakdown/setup for specific upcoming jam sessions in the 2013-2014 season, or
if you would like more information about the jam.
