About Fractal Jazz
Fractal Jazz is a newly formed Kootenay-based instrumental jazz group playing standards, ballads, cookin’ bebop tunes and original compositions. With influences spanning multiple jazz styles, Daralyn Fox (trumpet/flugelhorn), Mike Rud (guitar), Rob Fahie (bass) and Steven Parish (drums) bring raw creativity, interplay and contemplative synergy guaranteeing a unique musical experience with every performance.
The group will be playing selections of music by artists they love including Charlie Parker, Lee Morgan, Clifford Brown, Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers.
Performer bios
Daralyn Fox is a trumpet player and composer/arranger based out of Rossland, BC, fundamentally shaped by experiences at the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival in Moscow, Idaho during her early years as a musician. It was during this time, legendary trumpet voices such as Arturo Sandoval, Freddie Hubbard, and Clark Terry left a significant impression. She loves high octane big band lead playing and can also be found in smaller groups creating music in the grand tradition of hard and post-bop masters like Clifford Brown, Charlie Parker and Lee Morgan. Daralyn has studied music performance at MacEwan University in Edmonton AB and St. Francis Xavier University in Antigonish NS with a focus on jazz. She has also studied with the likes of William (Bill) Dimmer, Dominic Spera, and Jon Faddis. In her time as a performing artist, she has had the pleasure of playing with the incomparable Tommy Banks, Bobby Cairns and Dominic Spera.
Mike Rud is a Juno award-winning jazz guitarist and songwriter. As an instrumentalist, Mike has played alongside some of the greatest jazz musicians of the era like Peter Bernstein, Kenny Wheeler, Herb Ellis and Joey DeFrancesco. As a songwriter and arranger, Mike won the 2014 Juno Award for his album Notes on Montreal, a critically acclaimed musical portrait of the city. It was inspired by the great literature set in Montreal (Michel Tremblay, Gabrielle Roy etc.) and sung by Sienna Dahlen. Mike’s subsequent 2015 solo release, Miniatures, delighted audiences across Canada, creating the effect of a small group with only his voice and his guitar. Rud has a master’s degree from McGill and studied privately in New York City with one of the fathers of modern jazz guitar, Jim Hall. In 2007 Mike spent a year studying how the brain processes music, in the laboratory of Dr. Daniel Levitin (author of New York Times bestseller This is Your Brain on Music). Mike has taught at McGill, Western Washington and Carleton universities, and speaks frequently at other music schools. He is also a music instructor at Selkirk College in Nelson, BC.
Rob Fahie attended McGill University, completing his Bachelor of Music in Jazz Performance. He then received a full scholarship to the University of Colorado to study a dual-concentration Master of Music degree (jazz and classical). During his career, he has performed at prestigious jazz clubs and premiere concert halls throughout the world including The Blue Note and Carnegie Hall. In 2013, Rob moved to Nelson and has succeeded in making a name for himself on the region’s vibrant music scene.
Steven Parish earned his BA in Audio Engineering from the Berklee College of Music. In addition to studying Drum Set at Berklee, he also studied jazz drum set privately with Frankie Dunlop (Thelonious Monk, Lionel Hampton), Latin rhythms with Frank Malabe and attended master classes presented by the great Buddy Rich. Mentored by the legendary Les Paul at age 17, Steven’s also played, engineered and/or programmed tracks for Rock ‘n’ Roll legend Cub Koda, Ian Hunter, Joe Bouchard of Blue Öyster Cult and Rap artist Stezo-E. He has played Jazz with Anthony Braxton and Pat LaBarbara, as well as performance art with the groundbreaking Fluxus. He has performed with Selkirk’s long list of visiting artists including Robben Ford, John Handy, Jimmy Haslip, Max Bennett, Bob Mintzer, Frank Gambale, Mike Stern, Pat Mastellotto and Oz Noy, among others. Steven Parish started the Music Program at Selkirk College with Darcy Hepner, Jeff Link and Paul Landsberg in 1989.

TDAC’s 6 Beats Apart Series presents
Alex Cuba – Solo Performance
Tuesday February 9th. Two shows 5:00 pm and 7:30 pm. Each show 70 minutes.
Tickets $25 – Only 50 tickets per performance
Alex Cuba’s music incorporates his roots in a unique amalgam of styles, bringing together melodies, pop-soul hooks and rock chords in songs that may seem to bear little resemblance to traditional Cuban form. Though raised in Artemisa, an hour outside Havana, Alex Cuba’s artistry is as far-flung as the place he has settled and lived for over fifteen years: Smithers, BC. Alex incorporates subtle jazz influences, gained from his early years as a bass player in Cuba, and tasteful, sophisticated chords and lyrics expressing his poetry in an undeniably Cuban way.
Having collaborated with artists ranging from Jason Mraz to Ron Sexsmith and Nelly Furtado, Alex has over 20 awards and nominations to his name, including 4 Latin Grammys and two Junos Awards, and three Grammy nominations. Building on the 2017 Grammy nominated release “Lo Unico Constante” his latest album “Sublime” features six duets with Latin singers and songwriters, including emerging star Silvana Estrada and Cuban legend Omara Portuondo. Playing every instrument, including acoustic guitar, upright bass and percussion, Alex embraces genres like trova, bolero, son, guajira and combines them with jazz and pop.

SHOW DESCRIPTION
Hailing from Castlegar, Lisa Nicole’s story-driven lyrics are fused with a modern country sound and a
carefree stage presence. Singing from an early age Lisa Nicole has several BCCMA nominations. She also
won the Music BC Artist Development Project, which included a Nashville songwriting trip, and a once-
in-a-lifetime impromptu on-stage performance with Keith Urban! With her new 2020 singles “Wait on
Me” and “Do Your Thang”, and upcoming album “Where the Wild Hearts Beat”, produced by Jeff
Johnson, Lisa Nicole has entered the next verse of her musical journey defined by a sharp commercial
edge that maintains her pristine country ways.
Opening for Lisa are Son of John, a father and son country/roots duo based out of the interior of British
Columbia. With songs that cut to the heart, Javan and Johnny P. Johnson blend two generations of
country music, combining storytelling and soulful vocal harmonies with their unique acoustic sound.
With unique mandolin and fiddle licks they deliver original songs about love and the simplicities and
complexities of life that are both old and new country. With a flair for folk and roots, these two
songwriters create a sound that is uniquely Son of John. 2019 Gaylord Wood Traditional Roots Country
BCCMA Nominee and 2018 and 2019 BCCMA Fiddle Player of the Year Nominee.
