About the Artists
Laurent Humeau (trumpet, clarinet, soprano, vocals), Jared Higgins (tenor banjo), and Ashleigh Rose (tuba)

Laurent Humeau (France) started playing guitar at an early age with his father, fell in love with the music of New Orleans, and taught himself soprano saxophone, clarinet, and trumpet. His love for performing the music of the greats, like Louis Armstrong, Johnny Dodds, Django Reinhardt, and Sydney Bechet, has taken him around the world. He leads multiple projects in Canada and Europe including the Jungle Jazz Band, and is delighted to be returning to the Guelph Civic Museum.

Ashleigh Rose (Canada), is a classically trained pianist and saxophonist and grand-daughter of the founder of the Etobicoke Philharmonic Orchestra. She transitioned to tuba and sousaphone within the fanfare culture of southern Europe and later the brass band culture of Berlin, Germany.

Jared Higgins (Canada) is a Toronto local who has been playing professionally in the scene since graduating Humber College in 2016.
