Thugs at Bay (t@b) will be hosting and recording the T.A.N. Café Jazz Sessions in Toronto. This is a five day event, going from from June 26, 2009 until June 30, 2009, and is produced with cooperation of TAN coffee (992 Queen West, Toronto) and the Toronto Jazz Festival. Yes. this is an official Jazz Festival Venue and Event! We're currently talking to Ian Sherwood, Great Bob Scott, Chris Gartner, Sara Nasr and others.

We're working, haggling and bartering on several fronts to secure video taping and audio recording of all these events, both for YouTube and for potential live-CD projects. The final lineup for these events will be published by March 6, 2009. Check this page periodically!
