"Award winning modern Jazz in the spirit of Herbie Hancock"

Simcoe Blues and Jazz, Bar & Grill

&quot;I was a great fan of Herbie Hancock’s 60’s music. Nick Maclean Quartet is very solid. « Convergence » is one of the best canadian albums of 2023 and should have chances to get a Juno.&quot;

This October, the NICK MACLEAN QUARTET feat. BROWNMAN ALI celebrates the release of their hotly anticipated sophomore album CONVERGENCE. Led by fast-rising piano star NICK MACLEAN -- a 10x Global Music Award winner and one of the most in-demand young jazz piano players in Toronto -- this contemplative yet thrilling quartet delivers jazz between the two poles of thoughtful introspection and powerhouse conveyance, taking influences from Herbie Hancock&#x27;s primordial 1960&#x27;s Blue Note era recordings. Maclean&#x27;s quartet heavily features one of Canada&#x27;s most provocative improvising trumpet players -- BROWNMAN ALI -- an internationally acclaimed, multi-award winning jazz iconoclast who has been heralded as &quot;Canada&#x27;s preeminent jazz trumpet player&quot; by New York City&#x27;s Village Voice and is best known globally as the last trumpet player to play in the legendary jazz-hip-hop group GURU&#x27;s JAZZMATAZZ. For this show, Ali &amp; Maclean stand shoulder-to-shoulder with 2 of Canada&#x27;s top-tier 20-somethings: CHRIS PARNIS (in for Ben Duff) on upright bass, and PETROS ANAGNOSTAKOS on drums (in for Jacob Wutzke).

***Copies of CONVERGENCE will be available for purchase at the show (physical and digital)***

Come witness these four in full flight, this performance will feature deeply exploratory, hard-swinging modern-jazz audiences will not want to miss.

S﻿eating is first come, first served, if you need a seat make sure to come early!
