Rabble Without A Cause
Wednesday October 24th, 2012 with Bernard Stepien
Toronto guitarist Ken Aldcroft

For the last decade, Vancouver born guitarist Ken Aldcroft has been working at the Toronto Jazz Scene in many ways. He developed an interesting distinctive sound making his electric guitar sound somewhat acoustic. On the stylistic side, Aldcroft explores many different styles of Jazz. Tonight we will sample four of his CDs in preparation of his show at IMOO this coming Sunday: 1. Home, featuring solo guitar compositions with a strong folk music influence 2. Hat & Beard in a duo with drummer Dave Clark that explores the music of Thelonious Monk. 3. One Sunday, a duo with the great NYC bass player William Parker. 4. Notes of the Miasms in a duo with saxophonist Andy Haas. All of this, laced with calls for making pledges to our CKCU funding drive.
