"Celebrating its 10-year anniversary, the 20-person jazz-metal powerhouse that is Space Elevator channels Mike WT Allen’s ideas of what big band music can sound like in the modern age…and it sounds pretty wild!

Don’t forget your ear plugs, it’s gonna get loud!
With Evan Cribb, Jen Davidson, Dom Conway, James Wilfred Martin, and David Brown saxophones; Robin Comeau, Jocelyn Waugh, Heather Anderson, Thad Bailey-Mai, and Trevor Whitridge trumpets; Nicky Walsh, Casey Thomas-Burns, Janine King, and George McNally trombones; Terrence Trusdale keys; Thomas Hoeller and Seb Chamney guitars; Nikko Whitworth bass; Eliot Doyle and Max Ley drums."

Wallgrin @ Vancouver Jazz Festival (Ocean Artworks Stage)
$15 (in advance and at the door)
Sound at 8:30pm
1531 Johnston Street, Vancouver, BC
"Wallgrin is the experimental art-pop project of Toronto-based composer, vocalist and violinist Tegan Wahlgren. Drawing from a background in Celtic fiddle and choral singing, Wallgrin moves between lush string-based orchestration, beat-driven pop, and ornate vocal arrangements. From their 2018 debut Bird/Alien to their most recent album, Yet Again The Wheel Turns, Wallgrin’s world-building has always revolved around fantastical and mythological imagery. Called “an innovative artist who is just starting to flex their myriad skills and talents” (CBC Music), and a songwriter who “measures up to standards set by art-pop visionaries like Björk and Kate Bush” (Northern Transmissions), their spirited and raw live performances have led them to international festivals like Iceland Airwaves, The Great Escape, and Tallinn Music Week.
With Jen Yakamovich drums, Elisa Thorn harp, Nikko Whitworth bass, Amanda Sum keys/synth."
Sharing the bill with the one and only Devours.

Immix @ Vancouver Jazz Festival (Revue Stage)
PWYC - Sound 5pm
1601 Johnston Street, Vancouver, BC
"With a sound world that embraces the magnetism of bodies, the emotions of late-capitalist hearts, and the dreams of ghosts and angels, Immix’s songs dance between the vulnerability of the human voice and the potential of an emergent vocabulary hidden within the glitch and grain of synthesized voice.
The burgeoning solo project of Robyn Jacob–a composer, performer and educator who has worked with Grammy-winning ensembles Third Coast Percussion and Sō Percussion, Chor Leoni, and others–Immix sees Jacob exploring voice and harmonizer alongside Olive Shakur double bass, Nico Whitworth double bass, Haley Bird oboe, and Liam Hockley bass clarinet.
This event will also be screening the short film Dream Baby Dream."
