LUCKY CHOPS
Headlining the Jazz Sudbury Festival is New York’s brass group, Lucky Chops. They have been unleashing high-energy brassy funk on the world since forming in NYC in 2006. The intensity of the band’s energy is fueled by their desire to share the healing and inspirational power of music with others. Lucky Chops maintains a busy schedule touring across several continents and is also committed to music education, regularly performing clinics and educational outreaches to help train and inspire the next generation of musicians.

BOBBY BAZINI
Born in Mont-Laurier, Quebec, Canada, he grew up in a rural setting in a family with a love for country music. Influenced by Johnny Cash and Bob Dylan as well as Otis Redding and Ray Charles, he is often compared to Paolo Nutini. Bazini made his commercial recording debut in 2009 with the single “I Wonder,” which became a hit on both French- and English-language radio stations in Quebec. For his first two albums, the singer/songwriter wrote alone and dreamed up an earthy breed of guitar-driven soul that earned him multiple Juno Award nominations. But for his third full-length and second for the US, the 27- year-old Quebec native decided to change up his approach and collaborate with esteemed songwriters from Los Angeles, Nashville, and London. His newest album, “Summer is Gone” was released this past year.
