Tia Brazda Deeply influenced by vintage jazz & blues artists as well as modern-day sounds, the Canadian chart-topping songstress brings fresh, danceable batch of songs to the Rubber City in "Bandshell" Album Release Event!

Friday, August 21


Tia Brazda is a Canadian jazz singer originally from Vancouver, now residing in Toronto. Her debut EP, “Cabin Fever” burst onto the scene in February 2012, hitting #1 on the iTunes Canada Jazz Chart as well as receiving play on BBC and CBC Radio, Jazz FM 91.1 and college radio stations across Canada. Having honed her cutting-edge sound in the clubs of Toronto, Tia’s sassy songs and pin-up girl style have made a startling impression. Her music pays homage to the golden era while still remaining daringly modern.
 
Tia has toured the world performing from Montreal to Paris to Amsterdam, and has played such festivals as the Toronto Beaches Jazz Festival, the Sudbury Jazz Festival, the Barrie Jazz Festival, the Maui Waui Festival and Bestival (UK).
