Tuesday Night Jazz at the Church proudly presents the Bryce Gilhome Quintet: “O Canada - songs inspired by the Pacific Northwest”.

Tuesday, October 1st, 2024

Featuring an all-star quintet led by renowned Australian trombonist extraordinaire Bryce Gilhome and featuring saxophonist Roy Styffe, pianist Dr. Tony Genge, guitarist Joey Smith and drummer Kelby MacNayr!

Trombonist, songwriter and vocalist Bryce Gilhome has earned high esteem among the top tier of Canadian and Australian jazz musicians and fans for his beautiful tone, masterful melodic improvisations and swinging style!

In the special concert, Bryce returns to his one-time-home to present a special concert debuting music inspired by the sights, sounds and people of Canada’s West Coast!

Roy Styffe has been at the forefront of Canadian jazz saxophone for over 30 years, a lyrical improviser akin to the melodicism of Paul Desmond and the playfulness of cannonball Adderley with the depth of John Coltrane!

Bassist, guitarist, arranger and vocalist Joey Smith led a respected career south of the border touring with legendary jazz musicians including the Glenn Miller Orchestra before settling on Canada‘s West Coast. Since then, Joey has performed with every major jazz act in the city, province and beyond!

Pianist and organist Dr. Tony Genge has been a mainstay of the Canadian jazz scene, teaching, performing and composing at the highest level for over 30 years with everyone from Roberta Gambarini to Jeff Hamilton, Russ Botten, Neil Swainson and MORE!

Drummer Kelby MacNayr has made a name for himself performing across North America with the likes of George Colligan, Louise Rose, John Clayton, Ian McDougall and more! A celebrated drummer in all styles and highly regarded composer and band-leader, MacNayr treasures most the connection of the spirit of the music between the performers and the audience.
