32 - The Oakville Beaver, Friday March 14, 2008 www.oakvillebeaver.com Local singer returns to stage at CJ's March 21 Oakville artist Kim Addison is getting back into music after a three-year hiatus from singing and performing. On Friday, March 21, Addison will appear at CJ's Café in Bronte from 8 ­ 11 p.m. The concert also raises funds for the Oakville Arts Council. Addison started singing at an early age, and was playing in clubs by age 17. A graduate of jazz from both Humber College and the University of Toronto, Addison has since been featured at the Toronto Jazz Festival, the Distillery Jazz Festival, The Rex, the Montreal Bistro and many other venues in the Toronto area. Addison has produced and released two records to date. The first, Waiting for Words, is a compilation of originals she wrote early in her career. A pop tune on the record, You, was featured on many Canadian and U.S. radio stations. The second record, Born to Be Blue, features some of Addison's favourite jazz standards along with a couple of her originals, arranged for quartet and three horns by Paul Ashwell. Born to Be Blue has received airplay on stations such as Jazz FM 91.1 and the CBC. Addison taught music lessons at four different private music schools while attending Humber and the University of Toronto. She later opened The Addison Music Learning Centre to share her love of music with others. Addison Music has been voted number one music educator for the past few years. The company employs more than 23 teachers and at least 1,000 students attend Addison weekly. The demands of running the business are the reason Addison retired from singing, but she was recently convinced by owner of CJ's, CJ Martin, to get back into it with a comeback concert. Performing with Addison on Friday, March 21 will be Oakville musician Phil Kane on guitar, and bassist Jeff Beauchamp. The concert will feature jazz standards and a few recognizable favourites from the 70s done "a la jazz". Addison's appearance is part of a monthly program of Music After Eight shows at CJ's Café in Bronte. Tickets cost $20 and include all food and coffee, plus a cash bar. For tickets, call CJ's Café in Bronte at 905465-0411. It's located at 2416 Lakeshore Rd. W.
