Event Description
“This has got to be one of the best jazz acts in the city.” - Adrian Chamberlain, Victoria Times Colonist
The Jon Miller Quartet is a top-rated jazz group based in Victoria BC. The group's repertoire is composed of original compositions by group members along with classic jazz. In its most recent edition this includes organ-jazz in the vein of giants of the genre Jimmy Smith, Brother Jack McDuff, Joey DeFrancesco and Larry Goldings. Group members include Hammond B-3 organ marvel Tony Genge along guitar great Rob Cheramy and saxophonist extraordinaire Monik Nordine...Hard hitting and soulful, with an emphasis on swing, groove and blues-inflected jazz, the Jon Miller Organ Quartet (AKA Parallel Universe Band) invites audiences everywhere to join in their unique musical vision.
“Woah! Where have you been hiding, Jon Miller Quartet? ...on behalf of sun-deprived Canadians everywhere, thanks for this much needed dose of Vitamin D.” - Robert Rowat, CBC Music
"a delight for the senses...evokes the golden age of organ jazz." - Chemainus Valley Courier
In 2015 the group's latest CD 3 Days in Winter charted in the top 10 on Earshot Jazz charts for Campus radio programming across Canada for 19 weeks and was heard on CBC Vancouver's Jazz programme “Hot Air.”
