BCIJF & KJS present: The Jazz Implication

The BC Interior Jazz Festival and the Kelowna Jazz Society present: The Jazz Implication This group of rising young musical talents is led by Liam Nadurak (trumpet), and includes Jordan Dick and Dan Smith (guitars), Megan Frederick (bass), and Will Friesen (drums).

The quintet is known for pushing their interpretations of standards and originals into exciting new ground. A growing sense of adventure and camaraderie between the musicians allows for experimentation, blurring the lines of the traditional approach to trading solos. At times it becomes unclear where the soloist starts and the ensemble ends, keeping audiences on the edge of their seats.

Expect to hear a mix of some of their favourite traditional jazz standards mixed with the band’s own fiery original compositions.…
