COLIN SANKEY DUO

Vancouver's Colin Sankey, a bassist, composer, and arranger, gained international recognition after winning the 2022 Phil Jones Solo Bass Competition in New York. His debut album, Reawakening, released in 2022, showcases his fusion of jazz, funk, rock, and Latin music. Sankey's virtuosic six-string bass playing, often incorporating tapping and harmonics, creates lush harmonies and infectious grooves. He is frequently joined by Vancouver-based jazz and contemporary guitarist Sebastian Chamney and saxophonist Brent Mah. Expect a sophisticated blend of technical mastery and engaging improvisation.
