Our "Music of Horace Silver" band returns to the Lighthouse with new music to present!

This show will feature music composed by the great pianist and bandleader Horace Silver. Silver's writing is characterized by a unique mixture of swing, blues and Latin jazz. He wrote many hit tunes in the 1950s and 60s and helped define the style known as "Hard Bop". We will play some of his hits as well as some lesser known gems using the same instrumentation as his classic quintet.

Ryan Oliver Tenor Saxophone (Juno Nominated)

Lachlan Craven Trumpet

James Darling Piano

Kosma Busheikin Upright Bass

Graham Villette Drums
