Humber Noon-Hour Concerts: Emily Steinwall Quartet
Humber
Wed, November 08, 2023 | 12:15 p.m. - 01:15 p.m.
Lakeshore
Humber Music welcomes singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Emily Steinwall and her Quartet to the Lakeshore Auditorium stage!
When Emily Steinwall emerged on Toronto's jazz scene as a saxophone player, she was named one of CBC’s “35 best Canadian jazz artists under 35” at only 22 years old. She was also the recipient of JAZZ.FM91’s prestigious Mary Alice Stewart Award 2017, and was named Prince Edward County Jazz Festival’s 2018 Rising Young Star, all within her first couple of years since graduating from Humber’s Bachelor of Music program.
With a new focus on songwriting, Emily formed a band to perform her original music perhaps be best described as "singer songwriter fused with jazz." The group quickly carved out a top shelf reputation in Toronto’s live music scene with their transcendent, psychedelic and bold performances.
On November 8th, Steinwall will be joined by Jackson Steinwall on bass, and fellow Humber grads Joseph Martel on guitar, and Andrew McCarthy on drums, to perform music from “Welcome to the Garden,” her debut album which won the SOCAN Songwriter Prize in 2022.
Emily Steinwall has performed on the “Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon”, the “Late Show with Stephen Colbert ” and “Austin City Limits”, and performed on world renowned stages, including Madison Square Garden, Scotiabank Arena (formerly the ACC), and at MTV’s European Music Awards. Humber Music is excited to welcome her back!
