Several hundred schoolkids came through the Yardbird Suite the past three days for Jazzworks music workshops, directed by Fred Mack and featuring instruction from Aretha Tillotson & Joel Gray
Seeing youth with a diversity of personal styles, backgrounds and identities come together over a shared love of making music was truly inspiring, particularly in a day in which we are seeing cowardly bullies 'n hypocrites encourage hostility towards "different" kids
It's the Different kids who make history and create change. I'm proud to be part of an organization that supports youth choosing their identities, and actively provides them with the support and safety they need while they are becoming tomorrow's professional musicians
BTW - Bowie attended the Yardbird Suite as a patron after his Glass Spider tour stop here. I'll tell you the story if you buy me a scotch

For decades, Roger Levesque shone a spotlight on culture in our fair city, and wrote extensively about the Yardbird Suite and many of the artists who took our stage. He was an original Influencer long before social media airheads co-opted that term.
Whether in the Edmonton Journal, or on air at CKUA, or CJSR, or CBC, Roger shared his excitement for quality music and culture, but particularly jazz. Through his journalism he proved to be a vital cultural educator for a few generations of Albertans. He was important for my personal education in the arts, and I will remember him with the greatest love and respect.
Tom wrote a great article on Roger, published today

I spend most mornings dispatching work emails while spinning jazz & plotting out new radio shows. I get around 40 to 50 tracks that are in my head into a folder, then narrow down to about 16 when I get into recording. Here's the menu I'm working on for Jan 7

I received a letter from the Minister of Canadian Heritage - one of our grant funding institutions - insisting that we "suspend all activity involving the participation
of Russian or Belarusian state organizations or their official representatives."Consider the Yardbird Suite totally supportive of this directive

Problem solved
Keith from the Old Strathcona Farmer's Market has graciously provided concrete barriers to block cars from using Big Miller Park as a shortcut. In turn, he and his org will be given comps to Yardbird Suite shows for draws/partner use, and other bits of reciprocity. This is what neighbourly mutual support looks like among cultural organizations

I'm closing up shop tonight at the Yardbird Suite, Edmonton's home for jazz. I have been E.D here for 13 months, but have come here since my parents introduced me to it in 1975
I cannot explain what it is like to direct a club that has been an icon in my head for my entire life. I am blessed. I hope to entice #abndp to hold events here, as we are their people
