The Festival International de Jazz de Montréal (FIJM), presented by TD Bank Group in collaboration with Rio Tinto, is fast approaching! With just one month to go, the festival is delighted to announce that concerts by Blue Rodeo and Monsieur Periné have been added to the outdoor programming, offered free of charge on the TD Stage. Also on the agenda: roaming performances, student orchestras, lively after-parties and a vinyl fair that is sure to delight music lovers. The countdown is officially on—see you on June 26!
Blue Rodeo and Monsieur Periné will be hitting the TD Stage on June 27 and July 4!
With Blue Rodeo, audiences can look forward to seeing one of Canada’s most beloved country-rock bands that celebrated its 40th anniversary last year. With 16 studio albums and timeless hits, like “After the Rain” and “Hasn’t Hit Me Yet,” this legendary Toronto band was rightfully inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame in 2012.
Hailing from Colombia, Monsieur Periné is a group renowned for its eclectic style, blending jazz, swing, pop and Latin American genres like cumbia, salsa and bolero. Winners of a Latin Grammy in the Best New Artist category in 2015 and regularly nominated since, the band is led by Catalina García and Santiago Prieto and has conquered major international stages (Lollapalooza, Rock in Rio, etc.) thanks to its colorful, committed universe. Their latest album Bolero Apocalíptico (2023), awarded the Latin Grammy for Best Alternative Music album, combines sonic experimentation with messages of love, freedom and hope.
