30 Seconds to Mars is an alternative rock band from the USA, featuring actor Jared Leto as vocalist and was formed in 1998.
Rebecca is vocalist and trumpeter and performed in a back patio of 'Pamenar' which seats about 30 people (uncomfortably 😄) Michael is Rebecca's long time partner, so I purposely included him in the photo. Kensington Jazz Festival was back after forced hiatus, the attendance was about 60% of previous years, but the concerts were 100% wonderful.

There’s a bird in my yard, a Bewick’s Wren, who has officially declared himself lead vocalist of the neighborhood.
He’s about the size of a warm tater tot, but every morning he climbs to the highest point near the suet and unleashes a joyful, high-speed melody like he’s auditioning for the avian version of American Idol.
Scientists say birds sing to mark territory and attract mates. That is true. But I’m convinced this guy sings because he genuinely enjoys his own Voice.
The other day, he made direct eye contact with me, and sang even louder. I’m 90% sure that was bird-speak for:
“YOU! Over there with the coffee! Are you even appreciating this level of TALENT?”
Couplet
He’s feathered, frenetic, and never demure,
A bird with a beakful of musical blur.

the pied currawong (Strepera graculina)
Searching for the source of loud melodies from treetops in Melbourne, I found this bird.
From far north Thunder Bay, but part of Toronto blues since forever. He is a multiple Maple Blues Award winner and JUNO, longstanding association with the Downchild Blues Band 1979-2025! Gary Kendall is a Canadian bassist, vocalist and band leader, best known for being big part of Hogtown All Stars, The Mighty Duck Blues Band, and The Swingin’ Blackjackand. Gary Kendall Trio. I have seen Kendall not only with local bands, but also with many musicians visiting Toronto from abroad, they probably asked for him. On this photo he was part of trio with Tyler Burgess -drums and a guitar player at Union Summer music series.

A Yellow-throated Vireo singing his little heart out. My first time to photograph one of these Llittle beauties. It has been a season of firsts!
Yellow-throated Vireos are early spring migrants that travel from their wintering grounds in Central and South America.
Teke::Teke was a bit surprise for me. One of the few late night bands (11 pm start), and surprisingly Canadian group with mostly Japanese faces and a strong, definite Japanese music (Eleki) influences. Hard to define for outsider like me, but they have a strong following. Vocalist Maya Kuroki is central, with Japanese theatre movements, or is it amine? Definitely worth it to see them. Not jazz, not blues, but one of the pleasant surprises of the festival. On the photo is also Yuki Isami and Etienne Lebel
From Wikipedia: TEKE::TEKE is a Canadian psychedelic rock band, whose music blends Japanese rock and surf rock influences.

Cheryl Lescom is a proof that music keeps you young. (OK, Keith Richard exempted). Born in 1953, she has a great voice and stage presence. I seen her twice this year, and at both concert she gave her all. I was attending a fundraiser for 'Red Door Family shelter' in November and was happy to see that the vocalist was one of the musicians featured. I hope to hear her again soon, as she does not play in Toronto very often. She was supported by the 'Social House' Band: Margaret Stowe- guitar, voice, Roberta Hunt on keys, voice, Rebecca Hennessy - trumpet, voice, Russ Bosswell on bass, Jamie Stager - trombone and Michelle Josef - drums.

I remember Janice from about 20 years ago Friday's nights at Palais Royale. She was a diminutive girl in her early 20's with surprisingly strong, smoky, sultry voice. I did not see her since the 100 year old 'Palais Royale' relatively minor fire (early 2000), and the building was closed for 6 years. Janice Hagan sings now mostly in the Reservoir Lounge and at corporate events. Her vocals are heartfelt, and lively. The talented vocalist was part of Rex Sunday afternoon "JazzInToronto" Songbird Series. She was part of an excellent quintet and the appreciation of her mates was clearly visible on the stage. With Roberto Occhipinti – Bass, Al Cross - Drums, Eric Boucher- piano and William Sperandai - trumpet.

Amazing how these birds are so brilliantly colored on their face, throat, and breast, yet be so well camouflaged on the rest of their body.
I followed this individual around for about half an hour. It sure was vocal!

A picture from last night at, The Dispensary Lounge, here in Las Vegas as they celebrated 11 years of having live jazz.
A few quick pics I took of Sandra during our sound check before our concert at The Mesa Jazz and Blues Theater in Mesa, Arizona.
Genevieve (Gigi) Marentette is a singer with wide repertoire, but sticking mostly closer to jazz. She had a long career in Asia and Europe, but came back to Toronto to establish herself at home. She has a killer voice, looks and fashion is her domain. Gigi is one of the founders of Kensington Jazz Festival (Since 2016) and can be found doing million things preparing the festival and even more, when the festival is happening. I saw her this month at great event at Old Mill Inn, where she prepared a special program of song of one of her mentors Don Francks. On the photo she is the one with black & red dress, Dione Taylor (with the hat) joined her from the audience on improptu duet.
Surprisingly, I seen her at Jazz Festival in Cuba in January, where she was featured performer (and only Canadian) in Bobby Carcasses showcase of his best fifty, or there about, musical friends. She is a true performer, not famous yet, but well known in Toronto musical community.

At the Country Gospel Concert, this pretty, pleasant and photogenic vocalist was the main subject of many of my shots.
