Jibber jazz festival9/9/2023 Petr Cancura agreed and we appeared in the festival that year as Bonecello. The duo was well received and so we decided to expand the group. I had been talking about putting something together for the Lundi Jazz series at Le Petit Chicago with tubist Dr. Keith Hartshorn-Walton and so the idea of forming an all-bass-clef-instrument band came together. The resulting sound between cello and tuba worked very well and so we decided to add a drummer. We had all worked with Michel Delage and were happy he was interested in joining the group.Ī: Ken is doing most of the writing and providing practice space and recording facilities, Steve is doing most of the marketing and some writing, Keith is doing some arranging and providing practice space and Michel gets up early to practise with the old-timers! Everyone in the band is pitching in. Q: What appeals to the members of this group in terms of its lineup, its personalities, its sound, and its material?Ī: The band play instruments that often are in a supporting role. We each get to showcase our melodic and improv abilities, while also finding new ways to contribute either comping, bass, or counterpoint. The group shares an exploratory spirit, willingness to both try new things and hone down the arrangements until the music is tight and focused, and of course a sense of humour, which is absolutely necessary with this combination. The material is a combination of songs we’ve all kept in our pockets that we wanted to play, plus new compositions. We’re finding this is more and more vital, as it enables us to best work with the unique instrumentation.
