Big Easy Funk Ensemble celebrates the amazing variety of music that has grown out of the jazz, blues and snazzy grooves of New Orleans. The nine-member band includes a three-piece horn section comprised of Andrew Benton on sax, Kevin Tang on trombone, and Ryan Naso on trumpet. The rhythm section includes Reece Worth on guitar, Eric Stephenson on bass, Tyler Gibson on keyboards/organ, Ryan Davis on drums, Jeffrey Kornblum on percussion, and, last but not least, the mesmerizing Chris Berry on vocals.
This will be another CR Live Streets event that’s put on by the City of Campbell River in partnership with the Tidemark Theatre and Highway 19 Concerts with financial support from the Province of British Columbia. All CR Live Street events are free, family-friendly and open to all.
