Summer Jazz Vocals by Cuppa Joe Vocal Jazz Quartet
Advertisement
Doors at 8:30 PM , Show at 9 PM
Tickets: CAD $15 online, $20 at the door
Available on Sairyo
Show Description
Inspired by the sounds of The Manhattan Transfer and tunes like Java Jive, Cuppa Joe's jazz-based repertoire includes a variety of their arrangements, along with those of New York Voices and other close harmony groups, augmented by songs of popular artists like James Taylor, Simon and Garfunkel and The Beatles.
Musically diverse, but with common backgrounds in piano and vocals, John Wilson (founder and tenor) is joined by Cathy Thompson (soprano), Mary Moore (alto) and Peter Feldman (baritone).
Cuppa Joe provides an engaging stage presence, while delivering a mix of ballads and up-beat tunes. They sing arrangements that are rich in four-part harmony.
Bios
Cuppa Joe has been entertaining Ottawa audiences for over fifteen years. Popular performance venues for the quartet have included Zolas and Pressed/Montgomery Scotch Lounge (now Night Oat). They've also performed at the NAC's Fourth Stage, Gigspace, the Ottawa Jazz Festival and the Buckingham Jazz Festival. And they've sung for a variety of private events, including birthdays, anniversaries, retirement parties, garden parties, and even an engagement dinner.
Testimonials include:
"I’m in awe of all of your hard work and your well-oiled, impressive presentation! Your passion and joy was infectious!”
“A very enjoyable evening … a very talented group."
"I really had a great evening listening to your fabulous quartet. I will definitely recommend you to others.”
“The quartet displays a great dedication to the a cappella vocal jazz idiom, as well as a real sense of fun and a flair for entertainment. Each member of the group is an excellent soloist and their voices blend together beautifully.”
“I was impressed with the overall sound, style and the enjoyable interaction and stage presence.”
