An Evening of Innovative, Genre-Bending Music from Montreal
Montreal-based bassist RJ LeBlanc's new project, HEYDAY, consists of five of Montreal’s most versatile and prolific musicians: Erika Angell (voice), Jérôme Beaulieu (keyboards), Kevin Warren (drums), Nicolas Ferron (guitar) and RJ LeBlanc (bass).
The group has a wide range of influences—from post-rock to RnB and beyond—with the spirit of jazz as a common thread. It is an eclectic and highly energetic band that mixes finesse and feel-good in a beautiful way.

''HEYDAY is an exploration of ingenuity'' —Yoshi Maclear Wall, The Whole Note
LeBlanc has been on the Canadian music scene since the mid-2000s, performing with jazz artists, including Jean-Michel Pilc and Carol Welsman, as well as with iconic rock bands like The Dears.
