Fresh from a cross-Canada tour with the highly acclaimed modern jazz group NICK MACLEAN QUARTET, Trinidadian-born multi-award winning jazz trumpeter BROWNMAN ALI brings his straight-ahead hard-swinging acoustic quartet to the Rundle Lounge at the Banff Fairmont Springs hotel for a night of 50s & 60s jazz ala Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Joe Henderson, Duke Ellington and the great American jazz songbook. Ali has won 2 National Jazz Awards, a SOCAN award for composition, 4 Toronto Independent Music Awards, Montreal Jazz Fest's "Grand Prix du Jazz" award, an International Independent Music Award, is heralded as "Canada's preeminent jazz trumpet player" by the New York Village Voice and was named "one of the top 10 reasons to visit Toronto" by Air Canada. Here in Banff for a very limited time jazz audiences will not want to miss this performance with one of Canada's most provocative trumpet icons.
