RJ Leblanc’s Heyday with Erika Angell
Vernon Jazz Club 3000 31st Street, VernonMontreal-based bassist Rémi-Jean LeBlanc’s latest project, HEYDAY, is a group consisting of 5 of Montreal’s most versatile and prolific musicians; Erika Angell on voice, Jérôme Beaulieu on keyboards, Kevin Warren on drums and Nicolas Ferron on guitar, and RJ LeBlanc on bass. The group has a wide range of influences hailing from post-rock to RnB and beyond while tastefully keeping the spirit of jazz as a common thread. It is an eclectic and highly energetic band that mixes finesse and feel-good in a beautiful way.
