WR270: Chuck Copenace
A conversation with jazz trumpeter Chuck Copenace in a busy mall food court (so forgive some of the background sounds). Chuck has been making a name for himself in the local community for his groove-heavy instrumental sounds as well as his outreach to indigenous youth in Manitoba.
He's also headed to a jazz festival in Guatemala to bring his music to an entirely new audience, but before he goes, he's playing a set this Friday at Urban Shaman Contemporary Aboriginal Art Gallery.
This episode is brought to you by our friends at the Park Theatre, who are presenting An Evening of Jazz Song featuring Amber Epp and Heitha Forsyth on Sunday, March 4; and by Record Sundaze, Feb. 18 at PEG Beer Co., featuring Dub Ditch Records, Eye and Ear Control, Eat 'Em Up Records, and Electric Heat Records.
