A note from Jaymz Bee:
Serafin and I are off to Switzerland to remix some songs with Walter Zweifel. If you are free this Thursday, please come down to Stones Place and wish us a bon voyage!

THURSDAYS AT STONES PLACE

Thursdays at Stones Place feature top notch musicianship, great singers and a plethora of colourful characters... comedy, grooves, torch songs and instrumental masterpieces abound. World renowned musicians’ pop by to sit in with the house band include: George Koller (bass) Kenny Kirkwood (sax), National Jazz Award winner Ed Vorkurka (violin) and Juno Winners Richard Underhill (sax) and Tony Quarrington (guitar).

The show begins at 9:30 and continues until midnight. The room is big enough that you can sit up close to the band or in a far away corner for a quiet moment with friends. Sofas are set up for small and large groups of people. It’s a hang!
