Meet Marcie Campbell, a versatile vocalist whose love for jazz has become the soulful melody of her life. Born and raised in the heart of Canada, Marcie proudly hails from Winnipeg, a city that echoes with the rhythm of her passion.
Her musical journey took a pivotal turn at Humber College, where Marcie immersed herself in the intricacies of the art of performance. The college's music program became her training ground, shaping her into the accomplished artist she is today.
Marcie's voice has graced the stage as a warm-up act for legends like Bob Newhart, Jon Hendricks, John Faddis, and David "Fathead" Newman. The privilege of sharing the spotlight with these icons has not only been an honor but a testament to Marcie's remarkable talent.
Influenced by the likes of Al Jarreau, Dianne Reeves, and Nancy Wilson, Marcie's style is a fusion of contemporary flair and timeless elegance. Yet, she remains rooted in the traditions of jazz, drawing inspiration from the legendary voices of Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughan.
The stage is where Marcie truly comes alive, and her performances at renowned jazz festivals and intimate lounges across Canada bear witness to her enchanting presence. A consummate entertainer, Marcie Campbell’s performance is the marriage of humour and heartbreak with both song and story.

Nova Brasil Collective is a dynamic group of local musicians who share a fundamental passion for Brazilian music. The collective was born through the minds of Osvaldo Ferraz (acoustic guitar) and Dhiego Costa (piano), two Brazilian musicians who flew from Brazil to Manitoba to study music and who now call this province home. The ensemble is known for its vibrant performances and deep respect for the traditions of Brazilian music, while also infusing contemporary jazz elements to create a unique and engaging experience for our listeners.
Nova Brasil Collective debuted in 2024, performing at the Music ‘N’ Mavens Festival, with the show “Tom Jobim - Where’s the love?” at the Berney Theatre, with a historic overview of Antonio Carlos Jobim's compositions, and at the 2024 TD Winnipeg International Jazz Festival, with the show “Jazz Winnipeg Salutes – Astrud Gilberto: The Girl From Ipanema” at the Fort Garry Hotel Club Room, featuring classics that were recorded by Astrud Gilberto during her brilliant career.
For this performance at Jazz at the Fort Garry, a smaller ensemble of the collective will perform a very unique set of Brazilian standards by João Bosco, Ivan Lins, Djavan and Toninho Horta, all through the hands of extremely talented musicians from Manitoba's Brazilian jazz scene.

Madeleine Peyroux

Jazz Winnipeg is thrilled to welcome Madeleine Peyroux to the Desautels Concert Hall at University of Manitoba. 

 
About Madeleine Peyroux:
“Let us advance our mortal bodies upWhere hearts and minds will goLet’s walk, let’s roll.”
So sings Madeleine Peyroux on the upbeat title track of her captivating ninth album - Let’s Walk - the acclaimed singer-songwriter’s most assured, courageous work to date. Powered by the distinctive, honeyed croon that delivered her from the Paris streets to concert halls, these ten unabashedly personal songs, all co-written by the versatile Peyroux, deftly interweave jazz, folk, and chamber pop, with themes ranging from the confessional to the political, from whimsy to yearning. In every note, Peyroux digs deep, rendering this exquisite work with the disarming grace and gravitas of an artist in peak form.For the ardently civic-minded Peyroux, Let’s Walk continues the scintillating conversation with her audience – and with the world at large. “This music is part of a dialogue,” she says. “That’s what art is. It’s engagement, community. I believe more than anything in getting together with people and listening to music and conversing. Music is the only way I’ve ever built community.”Let’s Walk was a long time coming, but well worth the wait. Following Peyroux’s 2018 album, Anthem, the enforced isolation of the global pandemic made any real-time community gathering impossible. From a creative standpoint, however, Covid offered Peyroux a silver lining: she seized the opportunity to hunker down with longtime collaborator, multi-instrumentalist Jon Herington (Steely Dan, Lucy Kaplansky). The pair reflected on the seismic era at hand and wrote and re-wrote in what Peyroux calls “a shadow of reckoning.” When multi-Emmy-and-Grammy-winning producer Elliott Scheiner (Fleetwood Mac, The Eagles) heard a sampling of the new material, he mandated “no covers” for the album. The longtime studio veteran knew the time was ripe to highlight Peyroux’s incisive, often topical lyrics meshed with Herington’s ear for melody and arrangements.Album opener “Find True Love” came to Peyroux during the George Floyd murder trial. Like “Let’s Walk,” “Find True Love” is an irresistible entreaty to join a journey. First stop: New Orleans. “I was searching for solace in the American landscape,” Peyroux says. “I was imagining the first step toward healing, if there could be a future worth living for.” Herington’s pulsing, finger-picked acoustic guitar, interwoven with Andy Ezrin’s shimmering keys, propel Peyroux’s message of steadfast hope in the face of encroaching darkness. Says Peyroux: “The ideas in this song let me imagine a place where I can become a better me.”An astonished Peyroux says the title track came to her in a dream – including “the words, the rhythm, and the form” – a rarity for her. “The lyric refers to mass mobilization of marchers for civil rights around the world,” Peyroux says. “A voluntarily unified action in support of a humanitarian ideology. Herington fleshed out “Let’s Walk” with gospel textures, organ, and a steady, infectious beat, enlisting buoyant harmonies from Grammy-winning artist Catherine Russell (David Bowie, Rosanne Cash), along with vocalists supreme Cindy Mizelle (Bruce Springsteen) and Keith Fluitt (Patti LaBelle, Michael Jackson). Their churchy call-and-response with Peyroux’s burnished lead elevate “Please Come On Inside” and “Blues for Heaven” into a revival of emotion.“How I Wish” is Peyroux’s response to the horrific murders – over a period of three months in 2020 – of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery. This melancholy, minor key waltz acknowledges her privilege, and her anguish. “2020 was the year I woke up,” she says. Immersing herself in the work of such writers as Cornel West, she was struck by West’s repeated references to Black musicians as “Love Warriors,” responding to oppression with game-changing music: Nina Simone, Louis Armstrong, Marian Anderson, to name a few. “These are my teachers and my heroes,” Peyroux says. “African American music has been the one constant, true path in my life.”One such mentor was Dan William Fitzgerald, aka “Showman Dan,” for whom Peyroux wrote a rollicking ode after her longtime friend passed away in 2017. As leader of the Lost Wandering Blues and Jazz Band, the American-born expat took a very young, inexperienced Peyroux under his wing to perform across Europe, as she says, “on the street, in the underground, the public square, jazz clubs, restaurants, and private homes of dukes and duchesses.” Like many Black artists before him, Fitzgerald found he could get more artistic traction in France than he could in his homeland and conveyed his love of street theater to Peyroux, who’d moved with her mother to Paris at age 12.While in Paris, Peyroux noticed the custom of bourgeois parents buying an apartment for their grown children. For the satirical “Et Puis,” the bilingual singer assumes the role of that young adult as one “both blissfully ignorant of their privilege and consciously disgusted by its injustice.”For “Nothing Personal,” Peyroux bravely grapples head-on with sexual assault – both her own, and others. She reflects that the perpetrator should “learn every aspect of the consequence of their actions and be party to recovery in whatever way is welcome by the victim.” Herington’s mournful, insistent piano and acoustic guitar recall the intensity of “Plastic Ono Band,” with Peyroux’s painful-yet-resolved vocals intimate and beautifully unadorned.Peyroux changes gears with the playful, Caribbean-flavored “Me and the Mosquito,” and rapid-fire spoken-word album closer, “Take Care.” The former, inspired by Hank Williams’ hilarious classic “Fly Trouble,” offers perhaps the most humanist treatise ever on what Peyroux calls “the elusive singular mosquito which can ruin a night’s sleep.” For the latter, Peyroux “prayed to the spoken-word genius of Linton Kwesi Johnson” to deliver a heartfelt advisory re: avoiding the pervasive toxins in food, clothing, and modern culture in general. “I don’t recommend a morose existence,” she recites over Herington’s ska-flavored guitar and sampled marimba, “life is an art and perspective needs distance / But ya gotta get lean and scrappy and fight / If you’re gonna begin to get livin’ right.”When the road beckons this spring, Peyroux’s community of loyal fans is in for a treat. Thanks to serendipitous delay, her collaborators Herington and Scheiner, and the very perspective she shares in “Take Care,” the spare, slow burning Let’s Walk material will be set free in venues around the world, effortlessly dovetailing with Peyroux’s beloved versions of Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan, and Tom Waits (to name a few) classics. As she learned in her busking years, a great song can wield powerful magic, and inspire the best in any type of crowd. With Let’s Walk, Madeleine Peyroux takes full ownership of that magic.
