Velvety-voiced pianist Elizabeth Shepherd arrived on the international scene in 2006 when she released her debut album Start To Move.

Since then, the Montreal-based soul-jazz innovator has established herself as one of the most alluring and imaginative artists on the scene today.

Versed in equal parts Stevie Wonder, Salvation Army brass bands and classical sonatas, it is perhaps no surprise that this globetrotting talent has developed such a distinct and unique voice. Elizabeth has been hailed as “A jazz virtuoso blessed with a pop sensibility,” praised by critics worldwide for her arrestingly original writing and soulful delivery.

Along with artists like Esperanza Spalding, Robert Glasper, and Jose James she is seen as part of a wave of jazz musicians bringing the art form to a new generation of music fans.

Come out and brave the cold on Tuesday, Dec. 2 at 8 p.m. at The Arts Station in Fernie for a glass of wine with friends and some innovative, soulful jazz.
