CanUS offers traditional New Orleans Jazz with rich vocals, including jazzy three-part harmony. These are exceptional musicians who know how to get those feet tapping and lift your spirits in tough times. The band members are well known to New Orleans jazz fans and have played together for many years, creating a jolly musical interaction built on mutual respect and years of sharing the love of this unique genre.
Anecdotally, travellers come from across the pond, and all the way from Nelson, B.C., but the prize goes to a couple from Finland who raved about getting more sunshine with CanUS than anywhere outside!
Come and have as much fun as these music-makers do in sharing their love of traditional jazz with you all.
