The Jacob Do Octet thrives at the intersection of structured innovation and artistic freedom. Pieces like “I’ll Be Around” and “Fourtune” feature their range – from soulful ballads to high-engery, rhythmically intricate compositions, providing a platform for collaborative exploration and ensuring every performance is a fresh and engaging experience. This innovative approach has made the Jacob Do Octet a standout presence in Alberta’s jazz scene, selling out their debut performance at the Yardbird Suite in March 2024. They will be releasing their debut EP in at this show.
