20-year-old jazz/soul vocalist Anise Russow is recognized for her rich, expressive voice and dynamic stage presence. Originally from Victoria, Anise has been performing regularly on Vancouver Island since the age of thirteen in groups such as Groove Kitchen, the West Coast Soul Collective, the Midnights, and her own jazz groups. Her versatility has led her to numerous stages across both Victoria and Toronto, including appearances at the TD Victoria International JazzFest (2019, 2023, 2025) and the Toronto Undergraduate JazzFest (2024). Currently pursuing a Bachelor of Music at Humber College, Russow continues to refine her artistry across a range of jazz, R&B, soul, funk, pop, and folk idioms.  Attila Fias keyboards, Matisse Gubby-Hurtig bass, Kelby MacNayr drums
