Event Description

2026: CanUS begins our 35TH year at Hermann's.

While also touring jazz festivals in Canada & the U.S., with their concert at the Kennedy Center still showing on YouTube, if starting out this new year on a happy note is something you would like to do, this is the event for you. Fan comment: You certainly CAN entertain US."
Trumpet played by Simon Stribling adds that Aussie joy in bringing you those loved melodies, with the addition of some vocals, boosted by the Benny Goodman-esque clarinet of Al Pease, also on tenor sax in that beautiful Coleman Hawkins style. Doug Rhodes is on alto sax and vocals, featured on 5 of the 8 CanUS CDs, all of which you can hear on YouTube. Avram McCagherty brings a sparkle to any of the many bands he leads, and we get to enjoy him, too. His banjo and vocals are a treasure for our city, and the amazing bass player Scott White, along with Laurie Lyster, fabulous on the drums and vocals, too. And to finish and embellish is the early jazz piano style & vocals of Toni Blodgett, leader.

Simon Stribling - trumpet
Doug Rhodes - vocals &alto sax
Al Pease -Duke of Sooke, alias the Al Capone of the saxophone
Avram McCagherty - banjo
Lauri Lyster - drums
Scott White - bass
Toni Blodgett - tickling the ivories
