End of stage 1 & a banner year… Moving forward!… Halton JAZZ Singers is…

on Route 2020 with some new exciting goals & much appreciation to its corporate sponsors! We’re teaming up with a fine set of musicians from both the west & east sides of Toronto! We’re mounting a ‘festival’ set list…’in case….’ & we do hope that Halton JAZZ Singers are selected to SING & shine ON Toronto time…’ we’re ready!”… we really are ready!…We have needed the past seven years to ‘cut our stuff’… slowly, enjoyably, & methodically! We’ve sung with instrumental trios, little big bands, big swing bands & professionally produced instrumental backing tracks – just goes to show our versatility & flexibility.

Next show is in TORONTO, SUNDAY MARCH 8TH 3:00 – 8:00 P.M. at The Relish Bar & Grill, 511 Danforth Avenue. MARCH 8TH, 2020 TICKET INFORMATION

There’s a lovely, community space in Campbelleville (Guelph Line & 401), just waiting to have our sound fill it – It’s a lovely community, Campbelleville; Halton JAZZ Singers aka HJS has HJB instrumental jazz trio, of Heiki on piano, James on drums, and Brent on string bass – there’s six of us now – HJS+HJB JAZZ Sextet! We need a home so that YOU  can come to visit & SWING with us! So.. that’s what last night was all about… We packed up all our gear and headed into Halton, to St. David’s Presbyterian Church, 130 Main Street N., Milton, Ontario.   WOW! THE ACOUSTICS ARE AMAZING!  The congregation kindly granted us the use of the space to try it out for a couple hours last nite, & try it out we did!  It’s a great space! Lots of parking; quick access to the 401; it’s in a growing part of Halton close to Milton, Burlington, Georgetown & Oakville as well as Mississauga; and those of us in the other parts will find it to be an easy drive!

So the jazzy dudes, Heiki, James & Brent brought their A-1 game and supported Halton JAZZ Singers in our renditions of ballads, sambas, swing pieces – What a blast!

In time, there could be some open rehearsals happening at this locale – there could be some open mic sessions too at this locale and maybe some master classes!

Interested? Would YOU come to an open rehearsal? Would YOU like to try your hand/voice at singing with HJB jazz trio? or Would you like totry your ‘voice’ &  join in and sing one of your favourite tunes – Dream, Java Jive, Danco Samba, Don’t Get Around Much Anymore or other tunes –  a vocal jazz quartet chart with HJS – Siona on alto, Darcea on soprano, Jason on Tenor & Adam on Bass?
