Nuit Blanche, Funk, Jazz and more...

Join the Party!


Lots happening around Winnipeg and throughout Manitoba with Nuit Blanche. There are just too many fabulous acts to mention, so have a look at the web for what's happening where.

Word on the street is that The Infinity Project at 318 Ross Ave will feature performances from jazz-hip hop outfit Super Duty Tough Work and also from funk-ites Fauxpasfunk. Check it out. 

This week we are pre-empted for Culture Days. Check Ca will be back on the airwaves next week. 

Next week is a mixed bag: smooth latin, funky jazz, toe-tappin' funk... We had way too much fun putting the show together and hope you will enjoy listening to it! The show will feature some tracks from Caribbean and jazz music wizard Etienne Charles. Mr. Charles was in town recently for a jazz Masterclass and for some weekend concerts. Rhythm is the name of the game for Mr. Charles brand of jazz. Enjoy tunes from local jazz drummer and professor at the University of Manitoba Quincy Davis in the first hour, and Winnipeg's own New Orleans flavoured brass ensemble Dirty Catfish Brass Band in the second hour.
