Well-known Valley vocalist Pat Selman is spearheading a Sunday afternoon series that will feature many of the jazz musicians from the South Island that she’s met over the years.=0D=0A=
And, as the founder and driving force behind the Jazz Vespers at Sylvan United Church in Mill Bay, she has a lot of musical friends to draw from.=0D=0A=
Her Church Mice Productions, and the Youth-and-Mentors-in-Music-and-the-Arts Bursary Fund, have been successfully running that popular series since 2005.=0D=0A=
The Belmont Avenue Trio, comprised of musicians from Victoria and Duncan, will be the house band for the opening session, and Selman will sing a few of her favourite tunes with the trio.=0D=0A=
“And I hope a lot of the musicians in the region will come out,” she said. “Any time you get a bunch of musicians together, anything can happen.”=0D=0A=
The venerable hotel, a mainstay of the picturesque seaside village since 1902, was the venue for a long-standing jazz series going back to the ‘90s.=0D=0A=
But the Sunday jams ended almost a decade ago, and since then the hotel has changed hands and undergone an extensive renovation, which included almost doubling the size of the pub and adding a large stage, lighting and sound system.=0D=0A=
Since it reopened three years ago, the hotel’s owner/manager, Tony Van De Mortel, has brought in a variety of entertainment but this will be his first venture into jazz on a regular basis.=0D=0A=
“A lot of folks here, me included, are really looking forward to this,” he said.=0D=0A=
