Etana Live @ Moskito + Bite, Toronto, ON - Thurs Jun 6th!
ETANA - BETTER TOMORROW TOUR
Meet & Greet
PREVIEW SHOW
Etana, means ‘the strong one’ in Swahili;
her strength is manifested, this time around,
by pursuing a musical career strictly on her own terms.
Etana’s elegantly modest Rasta-chic sartorial style is as
distinctive as her sound: an audacious fusion of folk, soul, jazz
and reggae supporting a powerful vocal range suggestive of
the ancestral spirit of South Africa’s Miriam Makeba,
the regality of reggae queen Marcia Griffiths and the
soulful verve of Etta James.
She first received international acclaim with her hits
'Wrong Address' which was followed up
by “I am not affraid” & two more number one hits.
Her powerful voice and wide-ranging appeal
guarantee this young artist a spot in the spotlight
for some time to come
Alongside
Juno nominated singer Ammoye
Selectas GenesisOne & SunRay

Second, you might ask, “Reggae music exists in Korea?” Yes it does, and it’s growing in popularity. There are a handful of Korean reggae inspired bands that have been playing for several years now including Seoul's Windy City. You’re probably saying to yourself, “It’s Korean reggae music. How good can it be?” That’s a fair question to ask. However you might be surprised because it’s quite good. Windy CIty, formed by front man Kim Ban Jang combines elements of African music in addition to reggae and salsa, creating a fusion of new sounds while simultaneously paying homage to classic roots music. Having played around the world, including festival gigs in Japan, Brazil, England and even Jamaica, Windy City is a serious band who's international presence continues to expand. Throughout their career House of David Gang has been known for their uplifting roots rock reggae sound reminiscent of Kingston, Jamaica's music scene in the late 70's mixed with a modern roots Canadian feel. The band takes its name from The House of David, an after-hours spot on Queen Street West that was a hot spot for artists from the city's burgeoning Rastafarian and reggae community from the late 80s until the mid 90s. Now with the release of their album "Reggae Warrior" on NuFunk Records, the band continues to pave their own road as Canada's hardest touring reggae band. Visual Artist Tai Kim is a Canadian artist of Korean decent and is a member of The Propeller Center of Visual Art and currently teaching at the Koffler Center of Art. She's been following the work of Windy City for sometime and helped connect the band to the Canadian Music Festival. Tai runs the Art department of the House of David Gang, designing and making t-shirts, mini comic and .created the artwork for the band's new CD "Reggae Warrior." She often sings back up with House of David and her own roots rock reggae band Roots Vibe. She is a part of a Canadian-Korean-Jamaican cultural movement in Canada and has provided her artwork for the poster of this show. More on Tai Kim here: http://

Ah Sey One: A Reggae Insiders' Musical Journey @ Harlem Restaurant, Toronto, ON - Wed Aug 29th!
WEDNESDAY AUGUST 29th at 8pm
AH SEY ONE: A Reggae Insiders'
Musical Journey
Musical Journey
Hosted by Cameron Bailey, artistic director, Toronto International Film Festival®, Performances by The Sattalites, and special musical Guest Brendan Canning, Broken Social Scene
The event will celebrate this musical movement and history, timed to coincide with the 50th anniversary of Jamaica's independence.
Beginning at 8 p.m. on Wednesday, August 29 at Harlem Restaurant (67 Richmond St. E.), the event will be hosted by Cameron Bailey, reggae aficionado and artistic director of the Toronto International Film Festival. Special musical guests include The Sattalites, two-time Juno Award-winners and Canada's longest standing reggae group who will be joined by Brendan Canning of Broken Social Scene and Cookie Duster.
Bailey will delve into the various styles of reggae and discuss its place in Toronto in an interactive style with both musicians and audience. The Sattalites will introduce attendees to the basics of reggae, from ska to dancehall, touching upon how rhythms differ, dub technology, toasting and the context of each genre in between songs. They will illustrate the musical and cultural changes of the last 50 years with original songs from their repertoire and some "riddims" that make up the foundation of the vibrant and potent musical world of reggae. Canning, whose eclectic music passions make this a great fit, will sit in with the band on a few select songs. Audiences will also be able to tweet and ask live questions to Bailey and the musical guests.
"We are very proud to be part of the reggae history of Toronto that very much celebrates the mosaic of our city. Reggae has evolved over the years from folk-based music, specific to the island of Jamaica, to an international music genre with its own superstars," said Fergus Hambleton, singer/saxophonist of The Sattalites. "It has had a profound influence on the music of the world, especially hip hop and its related genres."
Following the musical performance, Canning will spin some of his favourite reggae tunes, creating an exceptional music pairing that is not to be missed. Bailey, whose passions outside of film include reggae, will lead the discussion about the multiple styles of the genre, adding a personal touch to this experience.
"Toronto is my home and I could not imagine living here without reggae in my life," said Bailey. "Reggae is more than a music genre; it's a way of understanding the world. The Wailers are philosophy. Dennis Brown is love. Dub is science. Dancehall is sex. Reggae rhythms taught me how to feel, and I'm still learning."
Throughout the evening, guests will enjoy the delicious Jamaican-inspired food and drinks provided by Harlem including mini-roti, beef patties, plantain tarts, jerk chicken quesadillas and coconut shrimp.
Tickets for Ah Sey One: A Reggae Insiders' Musical Journey are $59 for members and $79 for non-members. Only 100 tickets are available online at www.Sceneopolis.com.
