Join us for a cozy night of improvized music from some of Edmonton's finest!Ron de Jong (drums, cymbals, percussion) –Drummer Ron de Jong (Edmonton - amiskwaciwâskahikan/ᐊᒥᐢᑲᐧᒋᐋᐧᐢᑲᐦᐃᑲᐣ, Alberta - Treaty 6Territory) has been creating music through free improvisation, Avant-Jazz, and other fringemusic for the better part of his fifty plus years. As the founder of the now dormant and storiedimprovised music unit Vertrek Ensemble (1997-2023), de Jong collaborated alongside guitaristVadim Budman with local, national, and international musicians. An ongoing collaboration thatde Jong has enjoyed for many years has been an improvised music duo with guitarist JasonLee Scott called John Charles Tactic. Their most recent outing featured a live performance withguest double bassist Thom Golub.Among numerous others, de Jong has created music in performance and recordings with ThomGolub, Jason Lee Scott, Darren Williams, Ian Birse, John Butcher, Phil Durrant, Luc Houtkamp,Eugene Chadbourne, Marilyn Crispell, Damo Suzuki, the late Edmonton guitar maestro, BrianSchultz, Chris Dadge, Jonathon Wilcke, Cody Oliver, Cassondra Murray, Will Scott, PigeonBreeders (w/ John Charles Tactic), and the late, inimitable, virtuosic, and peerless Britishguitarist, Derek Bailey.In February of 2025, de Jong launched his dream project O.N.C.E. (Operations inNonpermanent Collective Extemporization), an ad hoc improvised music and arts live event.The project is modeled after Derek Bailey’s annual ‘Company’ meetings, grouping likely andunlikely combinations of invited musicians and multidisciplinary artists through randomselection. The next O.N.C.E. event is planned for February 21, 2026, at Felice Café. Anadditional privilege came this year when de Jong was invited by New Music Edmonton to put agroup together of diverse musicians for NME’s ‘Now Hear This’ festival in June. In addition tohimself, the group (O.N.C.E. More) included Thom Golub (double bass), Kelly Ruth (contactmicrophones, effects pedals on weaving loom and spinning wheel) and Jacob Tran (altosaxophone).Thom Golub (double bass) –Thom Golub (Edmonton - amiskwaciwâskahikan/ᐊᒥᐢᑲᐧᒋᐋᐧᐢᑲᐦᐃᑲᐣ, Alberta - Treaty 6 Territory) has played double bass and bass guitar since the mid-90s. As a gifted improviser and seasoned composer, he’s collaborated with and composed for all walks of musicians in every “kind” of music. Golub is an active singer-songwriter known by his alter music-moniker ‘Thom as Fred’ with multiple record releases over the years, including his most recent ‘From Here But Not From Here’. Golub earlier this year put together an improvised music orchestra for a performance at Edmonton’s celebrated Yardbird Suite live music venue. Musicians were invited from Alberta and British Columbia he’s worked with throughout his career for an improvised music collective he formed many years ago called T.I.N (The Improvisers Network). Golub was also invited by drummer Ron de Jong to form a quartet of improvisers for the 2025 edition of New Music Edmonton’s ‘Now Hear This’ festival.Alicia Proudfoot (harp) –Alicia Proudfoot (Edmonton - amiskwaciwâskahikan/ᐊᒥᐢᑲᐧᒋᐋᐧᐢᑲᐦᐃᑲᐣ, Alberta - Treaty 6Territory) is an interdisciplinary artist, currently enmeshing sculpture with harp performance. She completed her BFA at the University of Alberta and MFA at NSCAD University in Halifax. Proudfoot is a practicing artist with a penchant for improvisation and soundscapes. Incorporating layers of breathing and recorded sounds from the environment around her has expanded Proudfoot’s performance by pushing her harp’s resonance to new limits. Such expansions include appendaging sculpted legs to the instrument transforming the sounds through a metal or wood conduit. She has recently completed a residency at the Banff Centre and played in concert at New Music Edmonton’s 2025 ‘Now Hear This’ festival.Jason Lee Scott (electric guitar and effects) –Guitarist Jason Lee Scott (Edmonton - amiskwaciwâskahikan/ᐊᒥᐢᑲᐧᒋᐋᐧᐢᑲᐦᐃᑲᐣ, Alberta - Treaty 6 Territory) has been plying his trade since the aughts in “Weirdo Rock” two-piece NATL with drummer Phil Hickson. The duo has released multiple recordings over the past 20 years including their most recent EP, ‘This Day Will Soon Feel Like Yesterday’. As one half of improvised music duo John Charles Tactic (w/ drummer Ron de Jong), he’s created a raucous improvised music from Edmonton, Calgary, Vancouver to New York City (NYC performance under the watchful eye and listening ears of elder statesman improviser and percussionist, Eddie Prévost). Their recent and only release is with Calgary saxophonist Jonathon Wilcke ‘John Charles Tactic w/ Jonathon Wilcke’. Scott has also been a frequent collaborator with Avant/Free Improv vets Vertrek Ensemble and is featured on the 2019 release ‘Palace of Darkened Windows’. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/edmonton/saturday-nov-8-de-draad-kwartet/100001830940003839 - **Event Categories**: Music, Entertainment, Art, Festivals, Concerts, trips-adventures - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://consumer.pxf.io/c/1339408/3151484/39691?partnerpropertyid=1191892&MediaPartnerPropertyId=1191892&svlink=14105511&level=1&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Fsaturday-nov-8-de-draad-kwartet-tickets-1830940003839 - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 17.31, max: 17.31, currency: CAD ## Event venue details - **city**: Edmonton - **state**: AB - **country**: Canada - **location**: 10930 84 Street NW - **lat**: 53.5561285 - **long**: -113.4710579 - **full address**: 10930 84 Street NW, 10930 84 Street Northwest, Edmonton, Canada ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 10 - **organizer**: Felice Noir (https://allevents.in/org/felice-noir/22567633) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/7586657490824f1bf7a2a11a7ba8e51e5f3065c67ebb69abd7696be2efc28d73-rimg-w1200-h600-dcd5d5d5-gmir.jpg?v=1760618871 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/ced344717814e254a0c175f0087aba1125f8a0adff66f654d489f9c2c8389894-rimg-w400-h400-dcd4d5d4-gmir.jpg?v=1760618870 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Sat, 08 Nov, 2025 at 07:00 pm - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** 10930 84 Street NW, 10930 84 Street Northwest, Edmonton, Canada - **Q**: What is the ticket price? - **A:** starting from 17.31 up to 17.31 CAD - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** Felice Noir - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** Music, Entertainment, Art, Festivals, Concerts, trips-adventures - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about Saturday, Nov 8- de Draad Kwartet ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Saturday, Nov 8- de Draad Kwartet", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/7586657490824f1bf7a2a11a7ba8e51e5f3065c67ebb69abd7696be2efc28d73-rimg-w1200-h600-dcd5d5d5-gmir.jpg?v=1760618871", "startDate": "2025-11-08", "endDate": "2025-11-08", "url": "https://allevents.in/edmonton/saturday-nov-8-de-draad-kwartet/100001830940003839", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "10930 84 Street NW", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "10930 84 Street Northwest", "postalCode": "T5H 1M7", "addressLocality": "Edmonton", "addressRegion": "AB", "addressCountry": "CA" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "53.5561285", "longitude": "-113.4710579" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "Join us for a night of improvised music on on November 8th!", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "CAD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-04", "availabilityEnds": "2025-11-08", "validFrom": "2026-04-04", "lowPrice": "17.31", "highPrice": "17.31", "price": "17.31", "url": "https://allevents.in/edmonton/saturday-nov-8-de-draad-kwartet/100001830940003839" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "CAD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-04", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-04-04", "url": "https://allevents.in/edmonton/saturday-nov-8-de-draad-kwartet/100001830940003839", "price": "17.31", "name": "General Admission" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Felice Noir", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/felice-noir/22567633", "description": "Felice Noir is a series of \"after dark\" events with the emphasis on bringing people together with common interests!From small intimate concerts to trivia, there is something for everyone!For concer events:100% of ticket sales go to the artist100% of merch sales go to the artist+ performers get a 5% tip based on the revenue their event generates in cafe products." } ] } ] ```
