Featuring some of Canada’s most exciting players—including drummer Sanah Kadoura and guitarist Aaron Shorr—this quintet delivers a set of straight-ahead jazz with the pulse of hip-hop and neo-soul.
A respected educator and in-demand performer, Wickenheiser has shared the stage with artists such as Laila Biali, Jens Lindemann, and the Canadian National Jazz Orchestra. This is his Banff Centre debut—and it’s bound to move you.
