John Primer
Rainbow Bistro, 76
Murray Street
Saturday, October 15
@ 9:30 pm
As
the title of his critically acclaimed Atlantic Records CD suggests, Grammy
Award and Blues Music Award Nominee, John Primer is truly “The Real Deal.” At 8
years old, John borrowed his first guitar and started to strum. Before that he
played a homemade guitar built on the wall of the house with a broom wire, 2
nails, and 2 rocks to make it tight. With the sounds of Jimmy Reed, Muddy
Waters, Little Milton, Elmore James, BB & Albert King reverberating through
his Grandmother Laura Nell’s tube radio, John was instantly hooked. Early
inspiration came from his family steeped in spiritual, gospel, blues and
R&B tradition. As a young boy John’s mother knew he would be a singer, “he
came out singing” she would say. John first appeared on stage at the local Baptist
church, in his hometown of Camden Mississippi.

There
are not many jams that last without a break for that long, and with the same

Music by the Bay Live
Presents
Mad Dogs and
Englishmen - The Music of Joe Cocker & Leon Russell
St. Francis Centre,
Ajax
Saturday, October 22
@ 8 pm; $65 advance
Returning to Music by the Bay Live by popular demand. A
14-piece band with two drummers, percussion, 5 singers, piano, organ and horns
performing the classic songs from the award winning 1970 film of Joe Cocker's
Mad Dogs and Englishmen Tour.
Juno Award winning producer Lance Anderson (who brought
The Last Waltz to Ajax) has brought together another wonderful roster of Blues
All Stars. Backed by a nine-piece band which includes two drummers, the rhythm
this group creates is a freight train which will pick you up and drop you down
at the Fillmore East in NYC. They come together to celebrate the music that Joe
Cocker and Leon Russell threw together to fulfill a tour that almost didn’t
happen. Cocker’s English band was not allowed into America, so at the last
minute he asked Russell to assemble a group of musical all stars for a tour.
Joe asked the right man, as Leon was one of the most connected studio musicians
and songwriters in L.A. Part of the ‘Wrecking Crew’.

up on the success of their self-titled album from 2014, The Paul DesLauriers
Band returns with the aptly titled “Relentless”, a genuine blues-rock escapade
featuring 10 new songs encompassing their most original and powerful work to
date. Relentless indeed if you consider the pace at which the band has been
working for the last two years with touring, writing and recording. The awards
they keep racking up only confirm that hard work pays off. Adding to their
multiple Maple Blues and Lys Blues awards and nominations they had a number one
album on the iTunes Canada Blues Chart and in January 2016 they took home 2nd
Place among 119 competing bands from around the world at the 32nd annual
International Blues Challenge, held by the Blues Foundation in Memphis. Hot on
the heels of that win they returned to Montreal to complete writing and
recording Relentless and the result captures the very essence of The Paul
DesLauriers Band.

Jackson is the sort of openhearted, friendly guy who builds an instant rapport

honoured in 2002 with the Toronto Blues Society’s prestigious Blues With a

Samantha Martin &
Delta Sugar
Black Sheep Inn,
Wakefield QC
Sunday November 13 @
4 pm
Bubbling up from the cauldron of roots Americana music,
Samantha Martin is an artist of extraordinary power, gravitas and deep-seated
emotion. On first listen, one is immediately struck by the awesome presence and
sheer magnitude of her other worldly voice. Cigarette-ravaged and
whiskey-soaked in the extreme, Martin’s pipes are capable of conveying an
infinite range of emotions, bringing one to tears in one instance and in the
next uplifting one’s soul with an empowered declaration of hope, faith and
desire.
Released in February 2015, “Send The Nightingale”
represents a quantum leap for both Martin and her group. As a vocalist her
roots lie squarely within the wellspring of powerful, strong woman’s voices
embodied by such forbears as Marion Williams, Mavis Staples, Etta James, Tina
Turner, Bettye LaVette, Lucinda Williams and, perhaps most closely, Bonnie
Bramlett. As a songwriter, she draws on black gospel and southern soul with a
hint of roots country and sixties pop while her lyrics suggest an old soul with
wisdom beyond her years.
While Martin is a powerhouse unto herself, “Send the
Nightingale” is not the work of a single talent. In combination with what she
likes to term her “co-vocalists,” Sherie Marshall and Stacie Tabb, the vocal
blend Delta Sugar produces is pure, unadulterated gospel-tinged,
neuron-tingling magic where the sum is even richer than the already
soul-melting parts. Add to that guitarist Mikey McCallum’s Delta-inspired and
mystery-inflected guitar lines and Samantha Martin and Delta Sugar emerge as
one of the most powerful new artists to emerge on the roots music scene in many
a year.

Jonas & the
Massive Attraction
Rainbow Bistro, 76
Murray Street
Friday, November 18
It’s been quite a ride for Canadian rockers Jonas &
The Massive Attraction since the release of their album “Big Slice” in 2010.
The album hit Top 15 in sales nationally in Canada on the Nielsen SoundScan
Sales Charts in its first week of release. With three chart topping rock radio
singles, including their Top 10 hit ‘Big Slice’, Top 15 single ‘The Deep End’
and Top 20 song ‘Seize The Day’, the band was named one of the Top 10 “Most
Played Artists” at Canadian rock radio on the Mediabase year-end radio charts for
2011. No small feat, considering they did it on their own indie label, Big
Slice Records.

C.R. Avery
Black Sheep Inn,
Wakefield QC
Sunday, November 20 @
8:30 pm; $12 advance, $15 at the door
C.R. Avery is a unique, raw and dynamic performer. His
genius lies in many genres – blues, hip-hop, spoken word and rock & roll.
He is a one-man band, but one for this generation; with the rare ability to
sing poetic verse while beatboxing simultaneously while pounding the piano and
adding harmonica like a plot twist. He sings! He rhymes! He
beatboxes! He's a multi-instrumentalist!
It probably goes without saying that, with his skills as
a poet, he's also an amazing songwriter and his new album “All The Angels
Didn’t Scare Me”, perhaps more than any other, is a major showcase for his
songwriting chops. This was about going back to the traditions of music being a
form of journalism for the poor and working classes. It's a contemporary
singer-songwriter album, touching on everything from poverty, brokenness and
gentrification to Hollywood archetypes and casual relationships -- and it's
backed at times by a massive-yet-accessible wall of sound courtesy of Ben Mink
and Steve Dawson.

The Last Waltz – 40th
Anniversary Celebration
Rainbow Bistro, 76

Friday, November 25
One
more time in support of the Ottawa Foodbank, The Bushpilots are again hosting a
tribute to The Band's Last Waltz, perhaps the greatest concert film in history,
this time to honour the 40th anniversary of this legendary
event. Directed by Martin Scorsese, The Last Waltz was a document of The
Band's final concert at San Francisco's Winterland ballroom on Thanksgiving
Day, November 25, 1976. Joining The Band was an all-star line-up of special
guests including Bob Dylan, Paul Butterfield, Eric Clapton, Joni Mitchell, Neil
Young, Muddy Waters, Dr. John, and many more of the icons who created and
breathed American music.
The
Bushpilots were blessed to be joined by a Who's Who of Ottawa talent in 2013
and 2014 performing before an SRO crowd at the Rainbow Bistro, and we promise
this year will be the biggest and baddest yet. Joining the BPs will be, as
always, The Cripple Creek Horns.
Thanks to the legendary Rainbow Bistro for once again providing the venue for what will be our 13th Annual Xmas Bash. Ticket details and special guests to be announced in October.

Unsung and On The
Side
With Carolyn Fe
Tuesdays, 7-9 pm
Re-broadcast Saturday 10 am – noon & Sunday 2-4 pm
(all times EST)
It’s all about the Blues, Jazz and its derivatives from
around the globe and just around the corner. Songs rarely heard, from the very
first recordings all the way to indie artists who consciously push the envelope
to the next generation sounds of the genre; some older releases will be spun -
just because the album in old, doesn't mean it's forgotten, thus the "On
The Side" part of the show's title.
**********
Streaming great Blues, Roots,
Soul, R&B, Folk, East Coast and Celtic music across Canada and around the
world 24/7/365.
Check out their Canadian Blues
shows and hosts, including James Doran’s ‘Inside The Blues’, Brant Zwicker’s
‘At The Crossroads’, along with Mark Stenzler's ‘Blues Zeppelin’ from
Switzerland … and lots more Canadian and international Blues shows.
