PLEASE NOTE: due to circumstances outside of our control, this show is no longer possible at the Vallican Whole. Instead, Electrojazziness will be performing at the early evening Colours show at the Moonflower Collective in Nelson from 7-8pm. Those of you who bought tickets will receive refunds shortly.

Please note that this new show will not follow the original interactive format; we will instead be producing house music to fit the format of the event. If you want the full interactive audience-directed experience, the only Kootenay option is our show in Kaslo at The Langham tonight (Friday). Doors at 7, workshop at 7:15, show at 8pm.

Thank you for understanding and sorry for any inconveniences caused.

On Saturday, March May 24th, join us at the Vallican Whole in the Slocan Valley for a beautiful evening of live improvised music!

The night's journey will feature an interactive concert with an incredible jazz x electronica x hip hop fusion project, Electrojazziness! They are a 100% improvised duo featuring the amazing Montreal-based jazz pianist maestro Alex McNally and the Nelson-based live-music-production-and-freestyling wizard thisissami.

These two life-long improvisers come from completely different music backgrounds, yet their journeys intertwined last summer with the development of this genre-bending collaboration in Montreal parks. In 2024, Electrojazziness consisted of a series of battery-powered bike-transported public concerts (see image at the top) that mixed in clowning and audience participation. In 2025, Alex is coming to the Kootenays, where Electrojazziness will have a 2-week residency at Flow State Studio followed by a 15-performance tour. We invite you to join us on a magical, eclectic, groovy improvised journey with us at the beautiful Vallican Whole.

Here is a fun multilingual freestyle from their last concert in Montreal, if you want to get a sense of their style. And here is something on the slower side from that same performance.

Doors open at 7:00pm. Show starts at 7:30pm.
