The Bill McBirnie Trio: Find Your Place
by Dan McClenaghan
The standard organ trio doesn't usually include a flute. On paper, it sounds like a bad idea. It seems as if the cool breeze aspects of the airy blowing of the flute would get lost in the organ's electric woosh. As it turns out, flutist Bill McBirnie's Find Your Place, proves those seemingly similar sounds to ...
Canadian Singer/Songwriter James Bruce Moore Dedicates Album To Late Wife
It’s no surprise that one of the songs on “Lisbeth," the first album from Canadian singer/songwriter James Bruce Moore, is entitled “Stars of Silver.” After all, a number of tracks on the CD are about light – the light that emanates from life, and the light that fades when life passes away. In Moore’s case, it’s ...
Gordon Grdina/Mark Helias: No Difference
by Dan Bilawsky
No Difference takes place at the crossroads of the known and unknown, expected and surprising, and fenced in and free. More importantly, it's an album built upon the bonds of shared experience.

Andrew Hill: Solos - The Jazz Sessions
by Karl Ackermann
"My name is Andrew Hill--pianist." With humility characteristic of his long career in music, these words open Solos: The Jazz Sessions. Hill's avant-garde contemporaries like Cecil Taylor and Anthony Braxton often pushed the boundaries of their music in directly experimental and mathematical ways and the affect is sometimes intentionally discordant. Hill's unique ability was to embrace ...

Flutist, Bill McBirnie, Releases A New Album - Find Your Place
The Bill McBirnie Trio featuring Bernie Senensky and Anthony Michelli Find Your Place Bill McBirnie's new album, Find Your Place, departs in a significant way from his previously acclaimed acoustic jazz projects ("Mercy" with Robi Botos; “Paco Paco" with Bernie Senensky; and “Nature Boy" with Mark Eisenman). In FIND YOUR PLACE, Bill places the flute in ...
Steve Hackett at Casino du Lac Leamy Theatre
by John Kelman
Steve Hackett Casino du Lac Leamy Théâtre Gatineau, Canada October 5, 2013 It might seem odd that the guitarist who left Genesis more than 35 years ago has ultimately become the only one to champion the music made during the group's years spent in the progressive rock arena, while those who ...
Griffith Hiltz Trio: This Is What You Get...
by Dan Bilawsky
This band may be a trio in body, but it's so much more in spirit and sound. Guitarist Nathan Hiltz, multi-reedist Johnny Griffith and drummer Sly Juhas make up a single entity that expands and contracts at will, occasionally coming off as a legitimate sounding quintet or breaking away in various duo contexts; they completely obfuscate ...
Pram Trio: Visitor Parking
by Dan McClenaghan
An abandoned vintage perambulator--a pram--discovered on the streets of Toronto inspired the Canadian threesome to take as a name for their group the Pram Trio. Pictured on the cover of their debut album, Visitor Parking, the pram seems to have seen better days. It suffers rust and corrosion. If it ever possessed a sun shade, it ...
