Sam Hornby will be performing upstairs in the Mezzanine this Saturday from 9am to 11am.

Sam was raised learning Music through the folk tradition in England where he discovered the freedom of fingerstyle guitar. He now lives in London, Ontario and can be found in the community playing contemporary fingerstyle folk, Celtic Music and jazz standards.

Donald Waugh will be performing upstairs in the Mezzanine this Saturday from 11am to 1pm.

Donald was born and raised in Kingston, Jamaica. He started playing the piano at the age of 7 with encouragement from his parents. When he was 17 years old, he found my brother-in-law’s bass guitar and by the next morning he had taught himself the bass lines to a few songs. his passion for the bass guitar and for music in general grew from there.

When he started College, he became serious about his music career. He studied visual arts, Jazz theory and the bass guitar at the Edna Manley College of the Visual and Performing Arts in Kingston, Jamaica. During his studies his main influences were the various bands he performed in; the Javier Latin Jazz Band, the Jill Gibson Trio and the Kathy Brown Band, which allowed him to tour all around Jamaica. During his final year of college, he started his own band called Airplai®. For the next four years his sole focus was on Airplai® Band, which was his first independent endeavor.
