SALIN & MARY ANCHETA QUARTET (MAQ)
Wednesday, May 8, 2024 (7:00pm)
SALIN (Montreal)
Salin is a Thai-born drummer, composer and Juno nominated producer. Her current sound explores the enchanting sounds of Northeast Thailand and marries it with the 70’s psychedelia of West Africa, all through the lens of a modern soulful production.
ln 2021, she released her debut album Cosmic Island with which she had the opportunity to perform at a variety of festivals, including the beloved Montreal International Jazz Festival. In 2023, in the role of producer, Salin was nominated for Global Music Album of 2024 at the Juno Awards for her work on female Haitian duo Bel & Quinn’s Donte sann yo.
Working with both local Thai as well as Canadian musicians, Salin is bringing together elements of East and West in the form of her second full-length album, set to be released in 2024. She divides her time between her Canada-based studio and stages across the globe.

MARY ANCHETA QUARTET (Vancouver)
Keyboardist Mary Ancheta is a Canadian / Filipina artist who steps into the spotlight with her genre-bending organic, modern take on jazz and electro-funk. Inspired by the likes of Squarepusher, The Meters, John Scofield, and Prince, Ancheta knows what’s up when it comes to arresting melodies and irresistible grooves with Trent Otter on drums, Dominic Conway on sax, and Matt Reid on bass. Encompassing her experience in film scoring Ancheta seeks to tap into raw fuelled moments favouring grittiness over perfection.
Last summer they opened for BADBADNOTGOOD and played the MainStage on Jazz Festivals from coast to coast. From Vancouver to Toronto, to the renowned Montreal Jazz Festival, and from Ottawa to Halifax. They have also played on bills alongside Herbie Hancock, Louis Cole Big Band, Ghost Note, George Benson, Domi & JD Beck, and more.
