TANTRAMARSH BLUES SOCIETY & CATBIRD JAZZ SOCIETY

UPCOMING GIGS @ GEORGE'S ROADHOUSE (SACKVILLE, NB)

(MICHAEL JEROME BROWNE, ERIC BIBB & GREG AMIRAULT)


Just a quick reminder that Eric Bibb will be playing for us at 9 PM at George’s Roadhouse on Friday (July 4). He will be ably backed by the great Canadian Michael Jerome Browne. Tickets are $15 and are available at Ducky’s or at the door.  To get a taste of what’s in store, please visit Eric and Michael’s websites.

We have excellent news on the cross-border visa fee issue. You might recall that we had requested you sign a petition asking the Canadian government to  and undo changes that would make presenting bands from across the border prohibitively expensive. The petition was remarkably well supported (over hundred thousand signatures), and it might have played a significant role in  not only undoing the changes but abolishing the requirement for musicians from across the border altogether! This will certainly make presenting music substantially easier at our end (especially  since it makes finding partners easier). We thank you for your support in signing the petition, and for your patience and patronage.

Finally, our sister society, Catbird Jazz, will be presenting the featured show on 12 July (details as below). We hope lots of you will come out to both our shows…

Thanks, The TBS Gang


A Son of the East Plays East of the Sun

The Catbird Jazz Society, in collaboration with the Festival by the Marsh and Ducky’s Bar, presents Greg Amirault, in a solo jazz guitar performance (two sets), starting at 7:30 p.m., on Saturday, July 12, 2014, at Ducky’s, in Sackville.  Admission will be “pay what you can”, with a suggested donation of $10.

Originally from Amirault’s Hill, Nova Scotia, and of Acadian origin, Greg Amirault has been active in the Montréal jazz scene for 27 years. He has a Diploma in Jazz Studies from St. Francis Xavier University, and Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Jazz from McGill University. Having studied with Greg Clayton, Roddy Ellias, and Ben Monder, he has performed with such luminaries as Frédéric Alarie, Steve Amirault, Rémi Bolduc, Roland Bourgeois, Michel Donato, Wray Downes, Howard Levy, (Sackville’s own) Joel Miller, Eduardo Pipman, Maria Schneider, Don Thompson, Dave Turner, André White, and Karen Young.  Greg is also a jazz guitar instructor at both McGill and Concordia Universities, and has published a number of articles in Just Jazz Guitar.

Greg’s first album as a leader, entitled Acadian Folk Song, featured original music. His current album, East of the Sun, recorded with bassist Fraser Hollins and drummer Dave Laing, delves into the Great American Songbook – notably “Time After Time”, “Yesterdays”, “In a Sentimental Mood”, “My One and Only Love”, “Everything I Love”, and the Bossa-Novized “East of the Sun” – and also offers a couple of his own compositions, “Fang Song” and “Lighthouse Route”, the latter title suggestive of his youthful travels around and about Yarmouth. The album displays Greg’s nimble, lyrical, and tasty improvisational skills, in both ensemble and solo guitar performances, and on jazz standards and originals alike.

To provide a taste of what is to come, here is a link to Greg’s solo guitar version of “My One and Only Love”. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-bfHhTzzhA
