ANGELA VERBRUGGE

Vancouver Island vocalist Angela Verbrugge was nominated for Jazz Artist of the Year at the 2024 Western Canadian Music Awards. In 2025,All About Jazz announced that Verbrugge had topped their Reader Poll for Favourite Living Jazz Vocalist and in 2020 Angela won the Jazz Times’ Readers’ Poll for Best Female Vocalist.

She "possesses a winsome, brightly-burnished, pliable voice, ample emotional intelligence, and conspicuously good taste. Angela’s three albums feature standout arrangements of standards and original songs in the style of the Great American Songbook.

"No maybes; for Verbrugge, now is definitely the time,"–JazzTimes Magazine, Andrew Gilbert“

RAY GALLON

To listen to pianist Ray Gallon is to take a journey through the great lineage of jazz piano from its inception all the way up to the cutting-edge present. His playing is imbued with the vocabulary, sensibilities and soul of the very architects of the jazz artform. Born, raised and living his whole life in Manhattan, NYC pianist Ray Gallon has been a mainstay on the jazz scene for over thirty-five years. Rooted in bebop and blues, his expressive, swingin’ playing melds old and new into a fresh, original style.

"He expresses his ideas with original sentences, free from unnecessary embellishments, and with smooth fluency.”– Dark Blue Notes

"Pianist Ray Gallon may be one of New York City’s best kept secrets. A veteran sideman with a career spanning over four decades, Gallon was mentored by greats including John Lewis, and Jaki Byard." –The New York Jazz Record
