> tommygrl productions teams up with the Downtown Jazz Festival for this
> Toronto debut by New York born soul vocalist Nicole Willis and quirky
> Finnish saxman Jimi Tenor. The unlikely couple and frequent musical
> collaborators share very different backgrounds. Nicole fronted NYC acid
> jazz band Repercussions for six years, and sang with the likes of Curtis
> Mayfield, Leftfield, and Deee-Lite. Jimi has released numerous
> mind-altering albums for labels such as Warp, cleverly combining jazz,
> funk, soul, house and techno into a sound all his own. Together with
> deep house innovator Maurice Fulton, the pair produced Nicole's debut
> solo album Soul Makeover, a unique meeting of old school r&b and
> jazzified house which The Face magazine called "the best soul album of
> the year." Now calling Barcelona home, the duo come into town for a
> full-on live show featuring their seven member band, specially assembled
> for their date here and two dates at the Montreal Jazz Festival. This is
> an absolute once-in-a-lifetime type of show!
