TICKETS + INFORMATION

Violinist/vocalist Terry Jenoure started out in Free Jazz, but has moved on to something a little more immediately accessible. And she loves storytelling. Here she presents a long-form piece recounting the experience of her grandfather, detained for a long period at the Canadian border for lack of documentation when he tried to return to the United States after a family visit up north. Is her band good? It’s so good that Angelica Sanchez is the pianist.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: In person, eclectic cuisine at As You Are. Streaming at home, have a Toronto: pour 2 oz. Rye and 1/4 oz. each of Fernet and Simple Syrup, with 2 dashes of Angostura bitters, into an ice-filled cocktail shaker. Stir. Strain into a chilled Martini glass or coupe. Garnish with a orange twist.
