Twice a year we step outside of our normal jazz boundaries to bring something different, usually gifted singer/songwriters. We are very pleased to announce that veteran songwriter, Ray Materick, will be playing for us May 31st. at the Simonholt Restaurant.

If you do not know Ray, he well known for his hit song, "Linda, Put The Coffee On", from the late 70's when signed the Asylum Records. Ray has been writing solidly ever since and has well over twenty albums to his name and numerous high-credits to his name since he debut album. He will be performing with Glen Foster (lead guitar), Maggy (vocals),and Terry Bramhall (bass). Glen and Terry are musicians from Ray's original band back in the late 70's and this is a momentous reunion and celebration for them. Hope that you enjoy this show!

Tickets are $30.00 (students, Quadwangle Regulars and NIJFA subscribers $25.00.) available from Simonholt. (250) 933-3338, Fascinating Rhythm, or online HERE

Our next jazz offering is with the Ryan Oliver Quartet, June 14th.7:30pm at Simonholt.  Ryan will be offering his usual tempestuous performance with Dr. Tony Genge (keys), Ken Lister (bass) and Joe Poole (drums). More about this later.
