SUMMARY:Music: Dana Sipos
DESCRIPTION:Known for crafting music that is both fragile and orchestral\, acclaimed Canadian songwriter Dana Sipos invites the listener beneath the surface through a nuanced lens that isn’t afraid to be out of focus at times.

She is a consummate performer\, having brought her her unique brand of cosmic folk to living rooms\, concert halls and festivals stages across North America\, Europe and Australia. Her 2021 release\, The Astral Plane\, was lauded as a “mesmerizing jewel of an album” (No Depression) and garnered Sipos a Solo Artist of the Year nomination at the 2022 Canadian Folk Music Awards.

SUMMARY:Jazz: Fini Bearman
DESCRIPTION:Fini Bearman is a superb vocalist who took over from Brigitte Beraha as vocal tutor for the last few years of the Falmouth Jazz Summer School\, and is Professor of Jazz Songwriting at London’s Guildhall School. Visiting the club for the first time\, she is touring nationally with her band of A-list London jazz musicians. \nFini tours regularly across Europe and notable performances include Ronnie Scott’s\, The Sage Gateshead\, The Barbican\, The A-Trane (Berlin)\, Cafe Mercedes Jazz (Valencia)\, Manzioli (Izola\, Slovenia) and Dizzy’s (Jazz at the Lincoln Center\, New York). Festival highlights include the London Jazz Festival\, Manchester Jazz Festival\, Berlin Jazz Festival\,  ‘Jazz Voices’ in Lithuania and ’Voicingers’ in Poland. \nFor this tour she is presenting music from her 5th studio album “Last Night of the World” (Pastiche Records). An eclectic collection of jazz\, folk & pop-infused songs\, Last Night of the World draws on Fini’s experiences of motherhood & new beginnings\, of love & loss\, sometimes of a new-found sense of meaning\, sometimes an existential lack thereof! The record was conceived using writing exercises created for her work teaching songwriting\, and these seeds grew over time\, coming to fruition in tandem with her pregnancy; final vocal and instrumental takes often taking place with Bridget asleep in a sling… Inspiration for the songs is drawn from a diverse spectrum of influences: the melodic inventiveness of Madison Cunningham\, the esoteric jazz/folk realms of Becca Stevens\, Chris Thile\, Paul Simon and the electronic\, minimalist songwriting voice of Bjork. \nThis album marks a departure from Fini’s last LP (the solo record La Loba\, 2020) and acts as a return to her true ‘musical north’- a jazz-meets-indie-pop rhythm section playing lyric-based songs\, with nuanced and at times complex harmonic structures and rhythmic idiosyncrasies. Each song is individual and unique in its own right\, with space for improvisation\, interaction and connection. \n  \n \n
