Still Swingin’ – Preserving our Jazz Heritage 7:30 PM Admission $15 or Seniors (60 & up) $10 Cash at the door or for advance purchase call 613-729-0693 GigSpace is excited to present this new concert series featuring senior jazz musicians from Ottawa and Gatineau. This series was created with the intent of preserving our jazz history by sharing the artists stories, photos, and a performance. Each concert will be recorded for archival purposes. We are delighted that this series was made possible with a grant from the City of Ottawa. Our first concert features the J.P. Allain Trio. Jazz pianist J.P. Allain will be performing with jazz drummer Glenn Robb. Glen will have on display his amazing collection of photos from the 1950’s showing many of the bands and visiting musicians performing at the Standish Hall. Glenn Rob spent many nights watching these musicians. J.P. also spent many evenings surrounded by the musicians while he worked at the Standish as a busboy. They rubbed shoulders with the likes of Sarah Vaughan, Tony Bennett and Louis Armstrong. Rounding out the trio will be a bassist Normand Glaude.
