Kevin Elaschuk
Trumpeter Kevin Elaschuk and saxophonist Campbell Ryga have developed an extraordinary musical chemistry since joining forces recently. The duo�sadventurous modern jazz quartet (with Darren Radke bass and Brad Turner drums) can be heard to great advantage on a new CD called Any Answers (Cellar Live).
With a repertoire that includes originals by all members plus tunes by Ornette Coleman, Jackie McLean and Jack DeJohnette this all-star band is guaranteed to excite. Since relocating to Vancouver in 1986, Elaschuk has worked with pianists �Chris Sigerson and Lisa Miller, cellist Peggy Lee, guitarist Tony Wilson and others. As a leader or co-leader he�s performed with the Stratochiefs and ESQ (with Dave Say).
Campbell Ryga
Winner of multiple JUNO Awards, Campbell Ryga is one of the Canada�s finest and most sought after musicians. He is probably best known for his Stellar work with the Hugh Fraser Quintet, a band he�s toured and recorded with for over 20 years. Cam has worked with a diverse range of artists including Lena Horne, Mel Torme, Sheila Jordan, Bobby Shew and Pat LaBarbera. As a leader Ryga�s recent quintet recording, Spectacular (Radioland) is a spirited hard bop outing that captures the spirit of the Cannonball Adderley Quintet of the mid-�50s.
