Watermark Music Series - Swingin’ with the Rat Pack
Advertisement
“Swingin’ with the Rat Pack” is a tribute to the golden age of cool, reimagined in an intimate setting. With the spotlight on the hits of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Sammy Davis Jr., this series strips back the big band swing to reveal the heart and soul of these classic songs. Featuring venerated singing horn player Paul St-Amand and his trio, 2025 MusicPEI award winner for Achievement in Jazz Carlie Howell, and beloved multilingual artist Jorge Peña, experience the swagger and sophistication of the Rat Pack like never before.
With a rare combination of soulful vocals and a soaring trumpet sound, Halifax's Paul St-Amand charts a singular course through the East Coast music scene. He's a double threat in the classic jazz tradition of singing horn players like Louis Armstrong and Chet Baker, while infusing performances with more contemporary neo-soul, pop, and R&B sounds. Paul has appeared frequently as a guest performer and studio musician with artists like The Stanfields, Charlie A'Court, The Town Heroes, Campbell & Johnston, Hillsburn, Aquakultre, Roxy & The Underground Soul Sound, and many more. Paul's stellar trio for the Watermark Music Series features two of Halifax's finest jazz musicians in guitarist Gabe Mink and bassist Peter Bull.
