THE CORY WEEDS SOUL QUARTET
FEAT: CORY WEEDS - SAXOPHONES
WITH: AARON SHORR - GUITAR // STEVE FLETCHER - ORGAN/KEYS // JON MAY - DRUMS
A saxophonist with a warm and impactful sound rooted in jazz tradition. A label owner tirelessly documenting the vital sounds of both prominent and unsung jazz heroes. One of Canada’s and North America’s most important jazz impresarios. Cory Weeds is all of these things, and much more. He’s the hardest working man in jazz business.
Weeds was the founder and owner of Cory Weeds’ Cellar Jazz Club in Vancouver, which he successfully ran for more than 13 years. Weeds built the Cellar to become a beloved venue DownBeat Magazine acknowledged as one of North America’s best Jazz clubs, where masters such as George Coleman, Louis Hayes, Sheila Jordan, David “Fathead” Newman, Dr. Lonnie Smith, and leading jazz musicians from Vancouver, across Canada, and the U.S. performed before the last choruses were played there in February 2014.
But he wasn’t just the club owner. As a saxophonist who studied at the University of North Texas and Capilano University, Weeds spent many nights on the hallowed Cellar bandstand as a leader and sideman. He swung hard and held his own when performing with icons like Joey DeFrancesco, Christian McBride, and Harold Mabern. Weeds has recorded more than 23 albums as a leader, including his upcoming soul/organ quartet release, Hip to Be Squared (The Music of Huey Lewis and the News).
He has also appeared on records as a sideman with the likes of Brian Charette, Brad Turner, Jennifer Scott, Champian Fulton, and more.
His recordings have received numerous accolades worldwide, including reaching #1 on the JazzWeek charts, numerous Juno nominations, and receiving excellent reviews from jazz journalists around the world.
One of Canada's most in-demand saxophonists and Producers, this concert sees Weeds perform with Calgary's top groove-oriented trio in a very special soul jazz quartet - this is a rare opportunity to hear a Canadian jazz and soulful music legend with a burning group of young Calgary jazz masters.
