James Griffith is a national-award winning Toronto-based jazz saxophonist, bandleader and composer. Winner of the 2024 International Saxophone Symposium Jazz Saxophone Competition, Griffith has had the pleasure of working and performing with national and international jazz icons such as Dayna Stephens, Terri Lyne Carrington, David Virelles, The U.S. Navy Commodores Big Band, Kirk MacDonald, Mike Downes and more. As a highly in-demand bandleader, composer and sideman, Griffith can be found regularly performing at historic Toronto venues such as the Canadian Opera Company, The Jazz Bistro, The Rex, The Pilot, The Emmet Ray and more.
Peripheral Vision is one of the most exciting and innovative jazz quartets on the international jazz scene, performing together for 15 years. Based in Toronto, Canada, the creative leaders of the group are long-time musical collaborators, guitarist Don Scott and bassist Michael Herring. They have assembled a synergistic musical unit designed to push the boundaries of jazz while engaging the listener with a grooving, toe-tapping immediacy. Their distinctive musical voice bridges tradition and innovation, with deeply felt influences ranging from jazz, rock, classical, and improv, with a focus on dynamic group interaction. Scott and Herring are joined by saxophonist Trevor Hogg and drummer Nick Fraser.
