Cat Thomson & Jessica Lee (CASSICA)

2013-11-12T19:45:59.000Z

When: Thu Nov 28, 2013 7pm to 9pm PST

Where: Vancouver Christmas Market
Event Status: confirmed
Event Description: Opportunity didn’t come knocking for Jessica Lee, it blew the door in. The 21 year-old Ottawa native was invited by Josh Ramsay to duet “Good to You” on arguably the most venerable stage in Canada. Lee actually surprised herself a little at Massey Hall, discovering that she felt perfectly comfortable on stage. One month after the revelations of Massey Hall, Lee was in Vancouver recording a fresh version of “Good to You” and flexing her front-of-camera chops in the epic video that went with it. The rest is history in the making. Cruising on the same ready confidence she brought to Massey Hall, Lee accepted the offer and set aboutwriting and recording a debut album with a small team of collaborators including Fake Shark’s Kevvy Maher, Tino Zolfo and Marten Tromm—both fresh off their work with Adaline—plus Carly Rae Jepsen’s “Tug of War” co-writer Ryan Stewart, and Ramsay himself. Given the strength of her own personality and drive, Lee’s music feels genetically related to the music that inspires her (Kelly Clarkson, Leona Lewis, Christina Aguilera, Katy Perry—basically the female powerhouses) while being very much her own. She mentions that “even retelling the story makes you realize how lucky you are,” but sometimes nature has a way of adjusting itself. It was just a little nudge from the universe(and a couple of highly intuitive guys) that put Jessica Lee exactly where she’s meant to be. Cat Thomson is a classic triple threat. Equally at home behind both the piano and the mic, she has the range, power and depth that you’d expect from an opera trained vocalist. But Thomson is also a songwriter of remarkable sensitivity, with a natural feel for the plush contours and emotional edges of sophisticated adult pop music. Those talents converge on her debut album. Recorded in Vancouver with producers Kevvy, Steve Bays and Colin Janz (with input from allies such as Louise Burns), Puzzle is an album as deep and rich as the voice behind it that could sit somewhere between FionaApple, Florence and the Machine, and Mariah Carey without being diminished by any of them.

On Dec. 15, 2012, VBC presents the Canadian premiere of John Adams' profoundly illuminating nativity oratorio "El Nino (The Infant)." A "Messiah" for the modern age, the wondrous musical achievement is a poetic retelling of Christ's birth from one of the world's most vital and prolific living composers. To tell its tale, the oratorio weaves text from pre-Christian prophets, canonical and Gnostic gospels, and mid-20th century Hispanic poetry into a powerful and staggeringly beautiful score.

Cat Thomson & Jessica Lee (CASSICA)

2013-11-12T20:32:31.000Z

When: Wed Dec 18, 2013 7pm to 9pm PST

Where: Vancouver Christmas Market
Event Status: confirmed
Event Description: Opportunity didn’t come knocking for Jessica Lee, it blew the door in. The 21 year-old Ottawa native was invited by Josh Ramsay to duet “Good to You” on arguably the most venerable stage in Canada. Lee actually surprised herself a little at Massey Hall, discovering that she felt perfectly comfortable on stage. One month after the revelations of Massey Hall, Lee was in Vancouver recording a fresh version of “Good to You” and flexing her front-of-camera chops in the epic video that went with it. The rest is history in the making. Cruising on the same ready confidence she brought to Massey Hall, Lee accepted the offer and set aboutwriting and recording a debut album with a small team of collaborators including Fake Shark’s Kevvy Maher, Tino Zolfo and Marten Tromm—both fresh off their work with Adaline—plus Carly Rae Jepsen’s “Tug of War” co-writer Ryan Stewart, and Ramsay himself. Given the strength of her own personality and drive, Lee’s music feels genetically related to the music that inspires her (Kelly Clarkson, Leona Lewis, Christina Aguilera, Katy Perry—basically the female powerhouses) while being very much her own. She mentions that “even retelling the story makes you realize how lucky you are,” but sometimes nature has a way of adjusting itself. It was just a little nudge from the universe(and a couple of highly intuitive guys) that put Jessica Lee exactly where she’s meant to be. Cat Thomson is a classic triple threat. Equally at home behind both the piano and the mic, she has the range, power and depth that you’d expect from an opera trained vocalist. But Thomson is also a songwriter of remarkable sensitivity, with a natural feel for the plush contours and emotional edges of sophisticated adult pop music. Those talents converge on her debut album. Recorded in Vancouver with producers Kevvy, Steve Bays and Colin Janz (with input from allies such as Louise Burns), Puzzle is an album as deep and rich as the voice behind it that could sit somewhere between FionaApple, Florence and the Machine, and Mariah Carey without being diminished by any of them.
