Spygirl @ Lawrence Anthony Benefit

Tue, 16 Sep 2008 22:29:24 -0700

Start: Oct 26 2008 - 7:00pm

Description:

As many of you already know, our long-serving Coastal Jazz production manager Lawrence Anthony suffered a brain hemorrhage in April, 2008. Thankfully, with the support of his family, many friends and colleagues, and through his own sheer dogged determination, Lawrence is making a comeback. However, his road to recovery remains a long and expensive one. To help alleviate the financial burden, and to celebrate a great individual and fellow member of Vancouver’s tight-knit arts community, we are having another fun-filled fundraiser for our dear friend. Come and enjoy a great evening of music and camaraderie while diggin’ the hip sounds of Spygirl, Rumba Calzada, Peggy Lee Band, Kate Hammett-Vaughan Quintet, Brad Turner Quartet, and DJ Robbie Dub. Lots of fundraising pranks included.

Cost:
$35 All Tickets (Tickets available only through the Jazz Hotline)

Description:

On Sunday, November 30, 2008 Allison Crowe takes to the stage of the Library and Archives Canada Auditorium. This matinee concert event in the nation's capital, is in support of two Ottawa non-profit groups: Canines With a Cause and Vision Theatre.

"Get a piece of paper and write Tori Amos in the top left hand corner. Then write Patti Smith top right, followed by Stevie Nicks and Leonard Cohen (stay with me) in the bottom two positions. Then draw diagonal lines from their names to the centre, forming a big symmetrical cross. Here is where you will find Allison Crowe's music," says Australia's culture site, The Scene. The acclaimed vocalist and pianist from Canada fearlessly fits original songs alongside Pearl Jam, Ani DiFranco, The Beatles, Rock, Jazz, Broadway and more. It's a joyous sound that one music critic describes as 'Elton John meets Edith Piaf'. Says JoniMitchell.com song curator, Bob Muller: "Treat yourself to one of the mightiest talents on the singer-songwriter scene today."
