NIAGARA RHYTHM SECTION'S SATURDAY "MUSICAL IMPROV" SERIES

Niagara-on-the-Lake, ON
905-468-2141

Every Saturday night - 9:45ish - no cover

This week's featured guests: SAT. APRIL 19TH - DANNY MARKS

Danny is a recent recipient of the prestigious Maple Blues Award, "Blues with a Feeling for Lifetime Achievement" from the Toronto Blues Society. This iconic rocker's roots go back to the '60s as a founding member of the Capitol Records group, Edward Bear.

After a span as a journeyman session musician throughout the '70s, he settled into the club scene, establishing a cult following as a genre bender in music and humour. A house band gig at Toronto's famed Albert's Hall led him to host his own nationwide TV show, "Stormy Monday".

Through the '80s, Danny starred in the CBC Radio hit series "The Hum Line". Most recently, he has recorded two original music albums, Guitarchaeology and True, before paying tribute to Toronto's R&B roots with Big Town Boy in 2005.

Danny Marks is in his sixth year as radio host of "bluz.fm" every Saturday night from 8 o'clock to midnight on JAZZ.FM91. Obviously he's got the night off from radio and we're lucky to have him join us at the Ank for the first time.
