One of this country’s best kept secrets, Jazz/Blues/Soul/Funk man, Ian Janes, brings his band with him for a show at The Carleton on Sunday, July 17th. Show time is a civilized 7 PM and tickets are $25 + HST. In our humble estimation, Ian’s body of work stacks up favourably against anybody – anywhere…
Ian will be starting with a solo acoustic set and then hitting the stage for the second set with a band. The solo set will be relaxed & interactive with stories about writing the songs and a window into what’s in the works for future projects.
***If you want to sit with others who have purchased their tickets separately, please email reservations@thecarleton.ca with the names***
Ian Janes’ latest album Episode 5 is a genuinely timeless listening experience — a collection of pop songs that have been deeply influenced by soul, R&B and jazz; but both the production and songs transcend genre and era. There are both programmed beats and live drums, vintage analog keys alongside modern digital synths, jazz-inspired horn soloists, layered guitars, and beautiful, expressive background vocals…all of them driven by Janes’ rich, compelling voice.
