The Souljazz Orchestra is Ottawa's favourite hometown funky afrobeat party band. Over the past few years this sextet has garnered a lot of attention from Europe, and their latest album, 'Rising Sun", was picked up by a label in the UK. Hot off another European tour, the Souljazz Orchestra returned home on May 13th and performed for a room full of dancers grooving to their beat under the iconic chandelier in Ottawa's legendary Barrymore's Music Hall.
