Blue Moon Marquee

Winners of the 2024 JUNO Award for Blues Album of the Year, Blue Moon Marquee swings, jumps, and grooves their way through jazz clubs, dance halls, folk fests, blues haunts, hospitals, prisons, markets, motorcycle joints, dive bars, and prestigious concert halls.

“Part haunting, part joyous, and sneakily infectious” (Elmore Magazine), the spirits of Delta blues, ragtime, Howlin’ Wolf, and Django Reinhardt flow freely through this raw trio of guitarist/vocalist A.W. Cardinal, one-woman rhythm section Jasmine Colette—aka Jasmine Ohlhauser, aka Badlands Jass—on vocals, bass and percussion, and Darcy Phillips on organ. Together, Blue Moon Marquee “plucks the danger from a Tom Waits melody, dances it a little further over the line with dark magic, teases the rhythms, and raises a toast to back alley jazz.” (Canadian Music)

The event is free.
