The Jazz Rangers are very happy to be featuring singer D.Ruth this week. She is a jazz singer born and raised in Ontario, first introduced to jazz music by her father. She studied classical music until 18 years of age and graduated from the Royal Conservatory of Music, however jazz music was always her first love. D.Ruth has performed regularly with many of our well known local groups, like the Mississauga Big Band, in some of the best known GTA jazz venues.
Along with some new material from the jazz standards, we will be adding some soul, pop and other styles to our repertoire.

One of the GTA’s finest young saxophone players is joining the Jazz Rangers for the afternoon. Garret, originally from Burlington ON, moved to Toronto this year to enter the University of Toronto’s Jazz Performance program and has already established quite a reputation for himself. He plays with a smooth, relaxed sound, the ultimate goal is having a good time with the other players but most of all, in pleasing the listener.
As usual, the Port Credit Legion features a great informal location with a view directly over the Credit River from the club room and very attractively priced cash bar items.
