Our original CanUS Jazz Band trumpet,trombone player and singer Jim Armstrong bringing his spirit of traditional jazz along with a talent that made him a star musician on the U.S. Tradition Jazz Festival Circuit and took CanUS Jazz Band with him. Lucky us that he left Ireland to come to Canada! CanUS began as a quartet in 1991 & specializing in Boswell Sisters material meant being musicians who could also sing. They’ve kept that tradition and joining him are band regulars: the world -known trumpet player Simon Stribling, local stars on Victoria’s music scene Doug Rhodes and Al Pease on clarinet, tenor and alto saxes, Joey Smith the former Glenn Miller bassist who was brought to us- our thanks Diana, drummer Lauri Lyster also known as Vancouver Opera’s drummer and the leader, pianist Toni Blodgett tickling the ivories.
