Their sound is rich, decadent and layered like a perfect pastry from a French Café. Classic swing mixed with choice modern selections their set is fluid and smooth with an energy that is feel-good and soul driven. They have been playing around the Okanagan together since 2016. Darko came to Canada some 25 years ago from Croatia where he studied classical and jazz bass. In Vancouver he furthered his Jazz education at the Cap College in the nineties and embarked on a professional career in '97. After making himself known in Kelowna he landed a 2nd bass position in the Okanagan Symphony and has been busy playing in variety of bands around the valley including Wood, Wire & Fire. Denis completed a B. Music violin performance degree from U of A in Edmonton and at the same time began jazz violin work with the help of Tommy Banks in the early 70's. Denis has recently retired as the Concertmaster of the Okanagan Symphony, after 39 years, and during that time performed with many world class solo acts. He also recorded a duo CD with pianist/composer Stu Goldberg in 2006, entitled 'Reinventions'. Gil started his musical career playing in rock bands around Montreal as a teenager. He then moved to Toronto to gain a degree in jazz performance from U of T. In 2012 Gill and his wife moved to Kelowna where he now teaches full-time as a music teacher at Rutland Senior Secondary. As of late he is focused on playing jazz again and can be found in various groups around the Okanagan including 'Wood, Wire & Fire'. $10 cover |

We hope that this evening will become a regular event where we could have monthly themed meetings. And, of course, the event is open for non-singers to attend and share the beautiful music. |

| Ptriodactyl @ Lorenzo's Cafe ~ PTRIODACTYL ~ Hailing from Salmon Arm and Vancouver, Ptriodactyl is an Electrifying Trio of Voice, Violin, and Bass, that travels 465 km to rehearse, record, and perform together. This youthful, innovative group is constantly challenging themselves in both their originals and their interpretations of jazz standards by refusing to transcribe to the traditional musical roles of their instruments. Looking for groups like Trilogy, The Oscar Peterson Trio, and The Jennifer Scott Trio for their inspiration, this band is a unique fusion of groove and space. With their effervescent synergy, musical interplay, and sense of humor, Ptriodactyl captivates audiences and is not one to miss. Jessica Heaven - vocals Gavia Lertzman-Lepofsky - violin Jake McIntyre-Paul - bass Kate Hammett-Vaughan, Juno-nominated Jazz Vocalist Kitty King, bassist for Little Mountain Trio and The Kitsilano Kat Kickers $10 cover |
