Soul45

Soul45 is the latest venture from musical partners Greg Sutherland and Jordan Riley. This group features a front-line of three amazing female vocalists backed by a stellar seven-piece band, including a four-piece rhythm section and a three-piece horn section, performing original arrangements of classic and contemporary Soul, Funk and R ‘n’ B hits.

Formed in the early summer of 2017, the ensemble spent a year in rehearsal before heading out last summer for a number of club and concert performances including appearances at Mill on Main, The Algonquin Theatre and as main stage performers at Band on the Run. This summer, they are adding to their performance schedule with additional club and concert events including this appearance at The Algonquin Theatre.

All of the band members are Huntsville area residents and many are alumni from Sutherland and Riley’s very successful Song Project group which recently ended it’s 11-year run. During that time, the ensemble opened for Jully Black, The Tenors, Colonel Chris Hadfield and Hawksley Workman, and appeared on City TV's Breakfast Television, at The G8 Youth Summit Concert, and at The Huntsville Festival of the Arts. As well, the band headlined their own sold-out performances and played various private functions and corporate events.

This new unit, once again produced by Greg Sutherland, features Taryn Gray, Courtney Morey and Jenny Smith on vocals, Music Director Jordan Riley on keyboards, Jack Gaughan on guitar, Benji Jordan on bass, Bevan Wilson on drums, Trevor Carr on trumpet, Joe Alfano on tenor and baritone saxophone, and Andrew Ripenburg on trombone.

Tickets for the group’s concert at The Algonquin Theatre on Friday, May 24, 2019 at 7:30 pm are available for $25/person from The Algonquin Theatre Box Office at (705) 789-4975 or online at www.algonquintheatre.ca.
