An intimate evening of Jazz and Bossa Nova Music…with a Twist!
Sultry, playful, multilingual, exquisitely arranged music. If you missed her at the Waterloo Jazz Festival, or you wish to see her again, here is your opportunity to hear her in an intimate Jazz Club setting.Singer, pianist, composer and arranger, Patti Payne co-founded one of Montreal’s hip and
innovative New World/Jazz bands, VIVA NOVA. Their self-titled 14-track album – including
twelve original compositions – was named Discovery of the Week by Planète Jazz, ranked in
Magnifique’s Top5, and played regularly on Canadian airwaves. VIVA NOVA performed at
venues and festivals across Ontario and Quebec, including The Rex, Upstairs, Place des Arts,
Festival International de Jazz de Montréal, All-Canadian Jazz Festival and Le Lac en Fête.
Relocating to Hamilton inspired Patti to return to her passion for Jazz and Bossa nova.
The Patti Payne Trio has been playing their unique style of Jazz and Bossa nova for about a year
and a half, and are working towards recording their first album together.
Their signature phrase: Jazz and Bossa nova with a Twist!
Described in the words of their listeners: Exquisitely arranged well-known pieces, playful, witty,
multilingual, sultry, sassy, captivating, intimate, chill vibe.
Personnel:
Patti Payne on Keys & Vocals,
