Event Description

Singer-songwriter Nick La Riviere is an accomplished trombonist who tours internationally with bands such as the Juno award winning Paperboys, Michael Kaeshammer, and Adonis Puentes. Drawing from his experience of playing shows of many different genres, Nick incorporates jazz, R&B and funk into his own compositions. His high energy show has been a big hit at theatres and festivals such as The Islands Folk Fest, Victoria Jazz Fest, and The Island Music Fest. Home town shows are consistently sold out and festival shows attract a dancing crowd.

The Nick La Riviere Band features catchy and danceable original songs influenced by artists like Trombone Shorty, Sam Cooke, and Jamiroquai to name a few. The recent album, Another Time Around, rich in variety, has received plenty of media attention (NickLaRiviere.com/press). In addition to originals, live shows include energetic rearranged covers of tunes by Dr John, Bill Withers, The Box Tops, and more. Nick’s conch shell playing is always a big hit, and brings something to the show that most people have never seen before.

“...his headlining appearances qualify as mark-your-calendar nights of entertainment.”
-Mike Devlin, Times Colonist

“Nick’s musical diversity has led to performances with some of the finest musicians in the country and abroad.”
-Devon MacKenzie, Peninsula News Review

“Infectious, energetic, and fun. This band has it all!”
-Darryl Mar, executive/artistic director, Victoria Jazz Society

“The guy has a flare, which makes the music simply a joy to listen to.”
-Calvin Daniels, Yorkton This Week

“...there is something special about this new album. Something BIG and bold. Not to mention eclectic.”
-James Kasper, Play in Victoria
