Rhoda Scott

The last couple of days we've had the world famous jazz organist Rhoda Scott in town. Vanessa and I produced a couple of shows with her at the Upstairs Jazz Club, and Rhoda also gave a clinic about improvisation at McGill University.

Rhoda performed for an almost full house on Wednesday night which was amazing given the ice storm that had caused Montreal to come to a grinding halt. Thursday the weather was much better and Upstairs was packed. Excellent!

It's been really hard to juggle work, organ logistics and hanging out with Rhoda this week but it's been well worth it. Good times! We have to bring her back sometime when the weather is less sucky...
