Help us kick off an early spring at our first major musical event of the year; make up a party and join us for nearly eight hours of excitement and fun. We are more than a little pleased to be able to bring the "original" members of CanUS to play for us for the first time in many years. Originals Toni Blodgett (piano), Jim Armstrong (trumpet & trombone), Joey Smith (bass) and Don Leppard (drums) will be joined by almost original Doug Rhodes (reeds) for what promises to be a memorable reunion of the band. They will be joined on the program by Company B, one of the most delightful young bands to emerge on the Vancouver jazz scene in many years. For an additional treat we will also invite the current youth band from Chilliwack Secondary School (the school that produced the Big Bang Jazz Band). Seven members of the school program were at Camp Heebie Jeebies this summer thanks to donations from the Chilliwack Happy Times Jazz Society and the White Rock Traditional Jazz Society, and we are looking forward to great things when we hear them play next March.
