- **Event Description**: Sunday Jazz Matinee at James Bay United Church presents the Great American Songbook Trio!

Featuring the legendary pianist and vocalist Ms. Louise Rose, bassist Joey Smith, and drummer/vocalist Kelby MacNayr, the Great American Songbook Trio is a tour de force of jazz.

Celebrating the limitless possibilities of melody, harmony, rhythm, and text, the trio brings to life some of the classic compositions of the Great American Songbook with heart, soul, and the in-the-moment essence that has earned them an international reputation.

Ms. Rose draws on her incredible personal musical history — including studies with the great Oscar Peterson, Duke Ellington, and Todd Duncan (Porgy) and performances with Ray Charles, Ray Brown, Ella Fitzgerald, and many more — to share the practice of authentic music-making, personal expression, and human communication that brings this art form to life.

Bassist Joey Smith has toured the world with the Glenn Miller Orchestra, the Marc Atkinson Trio, the Great American Songbook Trio, and more! A first-call bassist on the West Coast for more than 20 years, as well as an in-demand guitarist, arranger, and educator, Joey Smith is at the top of his craft.

Drummer/vocalist Kelby MacNayr has shared the stage with jazz luminaries Terrell Stafford, John Clayton, Larry Fuller, and more! Equally at home in elegant trio settings and raucous big bands, MacNayr keeps his focus on the spirit of the music. His own Kelby MacNayr Quintet features a gorgeous blend of jazz and world music influences, creating a sound that is truly his own. The ensemble includes the legendary lineup of saxophonist Phil Dwyer, trumpeter Dan Lapp, pianist Miles Black, and bassist Tom Wakeling.

Admission by donation ($20 suggested). Everyone is welcome, regardless of ability to pay.
