Their music will include unique interpretations of jazz standards and some new compositions, A magical presentation of the music they know and love.  Norm Quinn plays Trumpet and Flugelhorn with this group.

He also leads the quartet Big Shoulders, and plays with The Curbside Collective, The BLJQ, Material Culture, and other groups from the Vancouver area. Jazz guitarist, Haig Armen plays with decades of experience from the jazz scenes of Vancouver and Montreal, Haig’s style blends traditional jazz sensibilities with an eclectic mix of modern jazz, creating a sound uniquely his own. Known for weaving melodic lines through hard-bop, bossa-nova, blues, and funky rhythms, Haig is an active jazz composer and leads the group Curbside Collective.  Dave Shakur is that rare musician who moves seamlessly between the jazz, classical, free improvisation, and indie rock worlds.
