The finale of our four performance OFFstage Jazz Series features Marc Atkinson
Marc Atkinson is one of Canada's finest JUNO-nominated, Western Canadian award-winning musicians. Atkinson’s picking has been described as flawless, surprise-filled, sizzling and supremely melodic. His music is original, complex and challenging in its conception and delivery but remains accessible and absorbing. The music of the Marc Atkinson Trio good-naturedly welcomes all listeners aboard for an intriguing, exhilarating and unforgettable ride. The Trio, formed in 2000, has toured North America, England and Europe and has received standing ovations everywhere they perform from the Montreal Jazz Festival to the Vancouver International Folk Festival to DjangoFest Northwest. Marc Atkinson is backed by Joey Smith on bass and Reuben Wier or Chris Frye on rhythm guitar.
This performance is Cabaret style inside the Port Theatre Lobby. Enjoy a drink in our casual setting and stay after to meet the musicians.
