This event is at Ocean Artworks and is FREE.
Vancouver-born saxophonist, clarinetist, and vocalist Evan Arntzen blends modern jazz influences with deep roots in the genre’s history. Now NYC-based, he’s performed with greats like Catherine Russell and Vince Giordano’s Nighthawks, developing a swinging style that Grammy-winning jazz historian Ricky Riccardi calls “the very definition of timeless.”
Joining Evan is his grandfather, Lloyd Arntzen, a legendary clarinetist, saxophonist, and vocalist who’s been a pillar of Vancouver’s traditional jazz scene since the 1940s. With Arnt Arntzen guitar/banjo, Don Ogilvie guitar, and Jennifer Hodge bass, they’ll share their joyful take on classic New Orleans jazz, plus stories of how the music made its way to Vancouver.
