The Jason Winikoff Hot 4

SPECIAL OUTDOOR CONCERT

The Jason Winikoff Hot 4 plays traditional New Orleans jazz & early swing from the seminal 1900-1930s era. They pull influence from pioneers like Louis Armstrong, King Oliver, Baby Dodds, Sidney Bechet, Kid Ory, Jelly Roll Morton, the ODJB, & modern custodians of the tradition such as Shannon Powell, the Preservation Hall Jazz Band, & Herlin Riley. Bandleader Jason Winikoff is a US-based drummer, percussionist, & ethnomusicologist who cut his teeth playing & studying Black American Music in New Orleans. Since 2018 he has been a fixture of the Vancouver jazz scene, quickly gaining notoriety for his bouncy grooves, high energy drumming, raspy vocals & focus on the long-form New Orleans repertoire. Expect multi-strain rags, barn burners, bluesy ballads, irresistible grooves & a fun dance party. Joining Winikoff are a group of talented artists: Bonnie Northgraves on trumpet, Dean Thiessen on keys & bassist Noah Gotfrit
