Beaches International Jazz Festival | Toronto Photographer

July 24, 2015 by Ardean Peters

Checked out the start of the Beaches International Jazz Festival and the StreetFest yesterday. And what a great start it was as we were met at the gate by Samba Squad and their delicious rhythms that I just had to move to. We also took in the music of DrumHand and a lovely dancer, The Soul Motivators, the Downtown Jazz Band and more. Great fun and GREAT music! I might have to return for a 2nd round!

Luminato 2014 & The Soul Rebels | Toronto Photographer

June 24, 2014 by Ardean Peters

They played/covered a wide variety of songs in their style “New Orleans Funky Brass with […]

The Roots Lounge Open Mic & Poetry Slam | Toronto Photographer

February 19, 2013 by Ardean Peters

I attended my 2nd spoken word event this weekend. Another event put on by Dwayne Morgan and Up From the Roots. This was hosted at Harlem on Richmond, a quick walk just east of Yonge and Queen. Loved the atmosphere of Harlem and look forward to going back for the dinner & live music they offer on weekends. The image below was the only one I was able to capture. Why? Because we did not arrive early enough to get […]

I will definitely be checking this out again next year and in the mean time will look for other spoken word & other events put on by […]
