John MacArthur and Melinda Whitaker

Melinda Whitaker began singing professionally at the Hotel Vancouver and became a widely recorded veteran of the Vancouver jazz scene thanks to her effortlessly swinging style that she brings to the interpretation of jazz standards. Her newest CD, The Touch of Your Lips, is a superb introduction to this classy vocalist. She is paired with Victoria’s own, John MacArthur who is an accomplished guitarist with an extensive background and plays a variety of jazz classics, swing, Latin and Gypsy jazz music. www.capitalartsfestival.ca/johnmacarthur.html
