Laura Hubert Band
Laura Hubert is not exactly a jazz diva, nor a straight blues artist, nor just a pop or country singer. She's a mix of them all, but Laura prefers to think of herself as a singer of "old songs." That term perfectly describes the eclectic repertoire of standards, blues and western swing that she delivers with such passion and style. Backed by Peter Hill's solid, swinging piano and his rich horn arrangements, Laura is reveling in the opportunity to reinterpret classics by some of the singers she most admires, from the classic blues of Bessie Smith to the full-throated ballads of Dinah Washington.

The Rex Hotel Jazz & Blues Bar
"Where jazz musicians come to hear jazz." From humble beginnings, The Rex Hotel Jazz & Blues Bar has grown into a musical mecca presenting 19 shows per week.Since the late '80s, the Rex has been at the forefront of Toronto's thriving local jazz scene. The casual atmosphere, eclectic mix of retro-chic decor, and an exciting variety of draught beer combine to make The Rex feel like a second home.
The Jazz & Blues Bar continually attracts Canada's finest musicians and is unique in that it remains distinctly inexpensive and affordable for the budget-conscious. During the annual Downtown Jazz Festival, The Rex is one of the central venues with the busiest programme. All year long, it's not unusual for world-renowned musicians (like Kurt Elling, Randy Brecker, Chris Potter, Roy Hargrove & The RH Factor, Joshua Redman, Russel Malone, Harry Connick Jr., George Garzone, David Binney & Mark Turner, The Bloomdaddies, Willem Breuker Kollektiv, Ricardo Del Fra, Derek Trucks Band, Mulgrew Miller, Eric Reed, Stacy Rowles, Ani Difranco, Maceo Parker, Dave Liebman, Chris Tarry & Henry Hey & Pete McCann, Rudder's Chris Cheek, Tim LeFebvre and Keith Carlock, Gary Versace & Dan Weiss, Slide Hampton, Joe & Pat LaBarbera, Christian Scott, Rob McConnell, Donny McCaslin & Ben Monder & Scott Colley & Antonio Sanchez and many more) to show up on our stage.
