Upcoming Infidels Jazz Shows: Mar 20-24

Infidels Jazz has 7 different concerts over the next four days, at 6 different venues! 

It all starts tomorrow night with an incredibly special performance by local trailblazer Feven Kidane for our Social Music series at Hero's Welcome. For one night only, Feven will be paying tribute to a true legend of the Vancouver music scene, Mandido Morris. Dido was a percussionist, bandleader, and composer, and influenced a generation of our city's percussionists. Feven's band for this will feature Graham Ord, who was a member of Dido's Hand People band, as well as Ben Millman, Yoro Noukoussi, and Jonny Tobin. This is a unique concert that features both the past and the future of Vancouver's music scene.

Kevin will be performing a solo set featuring music from the new album, and will be joined by Jen Yakamovich and Sean Curtis Patrick in this intimate venue.
