Sisters Euclid
Guitarist Kevin Breit usually avoids being labelled a jazz artist?he prefers to describe what he does as �wide-open garage music�?this awesomely skilled six-stringer has toured and recorded with jazz diva Cassandra Wilson. As well as playing on Norah Jones� two albums, Kevin has just finished touring in Europe with her. Since 1996, Breit been the leader of a mondo-jazz quartet named Sisters Euclid, who unleashed five acclaimed CDs and were recently awarded a �Best of the Festival� at the Vancouver Jazz Festival. With some of the most interesting musicians in Canada, the other �Sisters,� - deeply credentialed and all-male - include Africa-via-New-York bassist Ian de Souza, first-call drummer Gary Taylor, singer/harmonica player John Dickie, and organist Rob Gusevs, an acknowledged Hammond B-3 master. We just had to bring these guys back for a third JazzFest!
�The Sisters really rock, with Breit single-handedly covering off everyone from Django Reinhardt to Fred Frith.� - Globe and Mail
