Jason White brings a set of game changing charts to the stage. Drawing from the intensity of Hendrix, surfacing the compelling bass heads of The Bad Plus, and hitting that nerve where classic jazz meets Zappa.
The jazz trio format allows the piano voice to shine, a role that Jason can kick upstairs. Joining Jason on drums will be Joe Ryan (Toronto) and on electric and acoustic bass Paul Van Dyk (Montreal).
Never bound to the traditional jazz formulas, this group promises to keep you on your toes. The last three performances by the Jason White trio set attendance records, with inspired set lists including Philip Glass, Radiohead, and Thelonius Monk.
The trio will be joined by a few special guests, including local singer Amanda Kind, to revisit some jazz standards, explore the contemporary New York City jazz songbook, and give you something to dance to. Big time.
We’re offering a special Jazz Festival ticket price of $10. Opening act at 8:30pm: the amazing Uptown Waterloo Jazz Festival Youth Ensemble!
