But when you're a Canadian festival, another major challenge is a simple fiscal fact: most ...
Noah Preminger: Meditations on Freedom
by Karl Ackermann
Open and civil discourse has always been a tenant of democracy. Recent political events in the U.S. have reduced that discourse to a crude, gutter-level low that has left an alienated population in its wake, marginalized and left without a strong voice.

Geno Thackara's Best Releases of 2016
by Geno Thackara

by Chris M. Slawecki
Like just about every historically great organ trio, these three expert musicians are strongly rooted in funk and jazz: Organ player Larry Goldings and drummer Bill Stewart both spent time smoking riffs for saxophonist Maceo Parker and guitarist {{John Scofield (not at the same time), while no less an authority than Jim Hall once called Peter ...

Being Grateful: Defining the Jazz Years Part One - 1973
by Jacob Hobson
Jazz, like the Grateful Dead, has never been particularly easy to define. It seems jazz, in its most simply defined meaning, is improvised music. The Grateful Dead have been called a thousand different things since its official formation in 1965, but has rarely been called a jazz band. There have always been and will always be ...
