Terry Gillespie is coming to Toronto (actually Etobicoke) on Friday July 19th at Dakota's Sports Bar & Grill (2-2814 Lakeshore Blvd West)...He will be joined by Crystal Axe from Negril, Jamaica and a crack back-up band led by the groove-king himself Owen Brown on bass... He has been possibly my favorite musician these past 5-6 years...as Sue Foley says: "Terry should be much better known then he is..."...here's your chance to support one of Canada's un-sung heroes...his story is amazing...his music even better...
Terry Gillespie met Crystal Axe's iconic musical family 'The Overtakers' in Negril, Jamaica over 25 years ago. She has created her own identity in the Negril music scene. It is often she's introduced as Jamaica's very own Tina Turner. Now for the past few years she has been performing with Terry every winter at her venue 'The No Name Bar' in Negril. They play a unique mix of Blues, Soul, R&B, Jazz and Reggae.
Crystal Axe will be joining Terry Gillespie for the month of July touring in Ontario and Quebec.
I will be releasing a bunch of short I minute videos over the next couple of weeks promoting their tour...Please go out and support "live music" everywhere!
