After completing a $3 million winery renovation, Hillebrand Winery will host a series of jazz and blues music events in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario, this summer. More than 200,000 people visit Hillebrand Winery annually.
Hillebrand Jazz at the Winery
Hillebrand Winery celebrates its 18th year of Canadian jazz with music, wine and food on July 7 and 8 this year. Entertainment features the Canadian jazz band Manteca, musician Kevin Breit of The Sisters Euclid and singers Dione Taylor and Sophie Berkal-Sarbit.
Manteca is one of the leading concert attractions in Canadian and international jazz. The nine-member band recently released Onward, their first album in almost a decade. Hillebrand Jazz at the Winery will be their first reunited performance in the Niagara region.
Toronto-based quartet, The Sisters Euclid and guitarist Kevin Breit incorporate roots and rock music into their jazz. Breit has played and recorded with Norah Jones, Cassandra Wilson and Holly Cole.
Dione Taylor sings traditional jazz standards and original compositions. At 16, award-winning jazz singer Sophie Berkal-Sarbit recently released her first CD.
