For the third consecutive year, the TD Toronto Jazz Festival brings the pre-eminent sound of the city to the prestigious Shops at Don Mills (1090 Don Mills Road at Lawrence Ave. East) in the Town Square for a series of FREE concerts from June 22-July 1. For additional information, please visit www.shopsatdonmills.ca or www.torontojazz.com or call 416-447-0618.
Open air concerts are the epitome of summer and what better place to soak it all in than at the Shops at Don Mills, where fashion, dining and entertainment come outside to play. The Town Square, nestled in the heart of the shopping centre, will provide daily entertainment including Alex Pangman & Her Alleycats on Sunday, June 24 at 3:00pm.
A unique and powerful vocal presence on the Canadian jazz scene, Pangman has enlivened many a venue with her unerring take on classic 1930s era jazz, created when melody and substance reigned supreme. Presented with all the love, fun and respect it deserves, Pangman makes music of the past captivatingly present with her persuasive and infectious charm. Her longtime band the Alleycats back her up, including ace reedsman Ross Wooldridge, ever popular Jesse Barksdale on guitar, and more!
One of North America’s premier jazz festivals, the TD Toronto Jazz Festival attracts over 500,000 loyal patrons and features more than 350 performances with over 1,500 musicians performing at approximately 40 locations around Toronto.
