This is a killer band. Not to be missed.

Award-winning pianist ADREAN FARRUGIA, regarded as one of Canada’s most distinctive voices on the piano, has performed with leading jazz names in every major city in North America, France, Switzerland, Poland, and Japan. As a leader Farrugia has released three albums (his second album ‘Ricochet’ was nominated for a 2011 Juno Award for Best Contemporary Jazz recording), and as a composer, he has penned more than 30 works to date.

Since the late 1990s, Farrugia has been in high demand as both a performer and educator, performing and/or recording with some of jazz’s greatest and most diverse artists including: Larry Carlton, Ernie Watts, Curtis Fuller, Tom Scott, Bob Brookmeyer, Jane Bunnett, Randy Brecker, Eric Alexander, Jane Bunnett, Ron Blake, Joel Frahm, Cyrille Aimee, Matt Penman, Brad Goode, Kenny Wheeler, Molly Johnson, Darcy James Argue, Don Thompson, Lorne Lofsky, Kevin Turcotte, and Pat LaBarbera.

Adam Nussbaum is considered one of the finest drummers working today. He’s played with a virtual “Who’s Who” in
the jazz world. Longtime associates have included: John Abercrombie, Michael & Randy Brecker, Eliane Elias,
Gil Evans, Stan Getz, Vic Juris, James Moody, John Scofield, Joe Sample, Ohad
Talmor, ‘Toots’ Thielemans, Kenny Wheeler & NHØP, as well as freelancing with prominent artists of every generation, being a major asset no matter where he appears.
