These tunes make up the body of Ryans next album, shortly to be recorded. Juno Nominated Ryan needs very little introduction to any jazz ears in Canada, especially for his work with the internationally respected Shuffle Demons and has worked with some of the leading players in Canada, New York and the Netherlands.

Ryans musical prowess is matched by his academic achievements, holding a Masters degree in music from Rutgers University. As director and founder of the West Coast Jazz Academy in Victoria, he imparts his knowledge to aspiring saxophonists across Vancouver Island, directs both student and adult jazz combos and runs an annual week long saxophone camp.

Beyond performance and education, Oliver has contributed to the jazz community as an adjudicator for prestigious scholarships and festivals, including the Fraser MacPherson Scholarship.. He has been recognized as a nominee for numerous awards including the Prix De Jazz at the Montreal Jazz Festival, a Juno nomination and the Western Canadian Jazz musician of the Year in 2022.

The band features Ryan Oliver (saxes), Dr. Tony Genge (keys), Ken Lister (bass.) and Joe Poole (drms.). This combo swings high!
