Laurier Guest Artist Series: Jully Black

Experience the artistry of Laurier's talented students, faculty, and guests during our 2026–2027 concert season.

Concert Program

Canadian R&B icon and multiple JUNO Award-winning artist Jully Black returns to Laurier on Nov. 8 for a special concert alongside the internationally acclaimed Penderecki String Quartet and talented students from our Faculty of Music!

Following the honorary Doctor of Music degree she received from Laurier this past June, Jully is returning for an unforgettable evening of music, storytelling and collaboration, featuring fresh arrangements of her beloved hits.

And there's even more reason to celebrate: Nov. 8 is Jully's birthday!
