This month we are featuring another young, up and coming musician from the York University music program, also the son of our singer Rocco. We just love to support these very gifted students and really enjoy playing with them, giving a venue to showcase their talent.

This month we have a great singer joining us, Rocco Continenza, by way of the Halton Jazz Singers. We occasionally work together backing the singers up on their shows.
Along with many favourite crooner songs made popular by Frank Sinatra, Mel Torme, Bobby Darin, etc., we will have a good selection of the Ranger’s instrumental pieces.
We are back as an instrumental quartet. We have been working on a whole lot of new material and arrangements. There will be a sampling of jazz and familiar pop tunes that all will recognize and enjoy.
As always, this is a free event open to the public. The Port Credit Legion features a very reasonable priced cash bar and a BBQ on the terrace.
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.
Rain or shine, this is a free event open to the public. The Port Credit Legion features a very reasonable priced cash bar and a BBQ on the terrace.
We are hosting some really talented young musicians from the University of Toronto Jazz Performance program this month. Coming back is sax player Garret Hildebrant who first played with us last October, and he is bringing his friend, Christian Antonacci on trumpet, to join us. This is a special treat for all of us, having the opportunity to play with such talented young musicians.
