  - There's Jazz in the Afternoon at The Arrow & Loon Pub in the Glebe. Great food,
  micro-brewery beer, and jazz at 99 Fifth Avenue at Bank Street. It doesn't get any
  better than that!
  
  Sandra Clarke (vocals), Howard Tweddle (jazz piano), and Chris Thompson
  (drums) perform two hours of great jazz tunes from 5 to 7. All three musicians
  have been fixtures on the Ottawa jazz scene for many years, but this is the first time
  they've performed together as a group. The show will feature an eclectic mix of music,
  from ballads to up tempo, from latin to swing, from old to new. No cover charge.

  I only highlight a small number of events that are posted to the calendar.
  Nowhere near everything is posted on the calendar as it's musician/venue
  optional to post, and amend the listings as needed. However more info can be found
  on the calendar including links to such venue web sites as Rainbow Bistro, Tucson's,
  The Elmdale and Bass Line Station that usually have more detailed schedules.
  
  It's also a good idea to call a venue to confirm that regular listings still apply
  as they sometimes just quietly go away or may be cancelled due to weather disruptions.
