David Vest is a fabulous, foot-stompin’ roots-rocker and boogie-woogie piano player, who can just as effortlessly play beautiful jazz and country blues ballads. His live shows are legendary, and his career probably pre-dates rock and roll itself.
He is a two-time winner of the Maple Blues Award for Piano/Keyboard Player of the Year.
Onstage with Big Joe Turner and opening for Roy Orbison before he was old enough to vote, he later played with blues giants like Bo Diddley, Jimmy T99 Nelson, and Hubert Sumlin. He wrote the first songs recorded by Tammy Wynette.
He has been credited with keeping an important part of Americana alive, and his new release, Roadhouse Revelation, is already being called “a most amazing set of songs” and “a candidate for album of the year.” www.davidvest.ca
Blue Moon Marquee is a Screamin' and Hollerin' Gypsy blues band that stems from the Alta. Dusty Hoodoos and the Rocky Mountains. A.W. Cardinal (vocals/guitar) and Jasmine Colette (vocals, bass, drums) primarily write and perform original compositions. Influenced by anything that swings, jumps or grooves. Artists such as Lonnie Johnson, Blind Willie Jonson, Charley Patton, Howlin' Wolf, Bill Jennings, Big Bill Broonzy, Django Riendhart to name a few.
