Odessa/Havana | Jewish/Cuban musical mash-up | Toronto | Nov. 21
On Nov. 21, Toronto's Lula Lounge will be filled with the sounds of ODESSA/HAVANA's explosive Jewish/Cuban musical mash-ups.
Odessa/Havana is led by the award-winning trumpeter and composer David Buchbinder and comprised of Canada's top jazz and world musicians. Their innovative sound springs from the Jewish-fuelled, American Mambo craze of the 1950s, but they still constantly work at challenging listeners' preconceptions.
With a new CD on their heels, released internationally on Tzadik--John Zorn's "Radical Jewish Culture" record label--Odessa/Havana are on a 7-city tour. If you miss them in Toronto, the band will also be stopping in Ottawa, Banff, and Vancouver later on in the tour.
So for a simmering night of unforgettable music, check out Odessa/Havana as they ignite North America.
ODESSA/HAVANA
Wednesday, Nov. 21 @ 7pm | Lula Lounge (1585 Dundas Street West, Toronto) | Tix from $15 (INFO)
