Praised by critics worldwide, Dan will be joined by B.C. jazz icons, Miles Black on piano and Miles Hill on bass. Featured on nearly a dozen albums with his father, Dan has toured widely and appeared with many of the world’s leading orchestras achieving a reputation as one of the most talented and creative drummers in jazz.

The 2022 Vernon Jazz Club fall season features nine performances ranging from Brubeck’s cool jazz to Los Variants global funk blues, David Buchbinder’s genre bending jazz, James Brown’s sublime guitar and KINGA’s jazz/pop vocals.

Bringing in the New Year is favourite Sherman “TANK” Doucette with his instantly recognizable blues harp style and dance party music.
