Water St. Cafe

300 Water Street, Vancouver, British Columbia V6B 1B6, Canada Karte

"Angela has good humor, good sense, and good taste, a rare combination. She is a hilariously pungent comedian / social critic / swing psychologist and a born storyteller. Angela has a remarkably winning voice. She is a pleasure to listen to, sometimes lemony, sometimes warm and embracing. She is the sole composer of three of the dozen songs on her most recent album, and the funny, playful lyricist for the other nine. Her work is head and shoulders above the usual flood of vocal jazz albums."
- JazzLives

The same menu as the award-winning Water St Cafe is served upstairs. Fresh crab eggs benny, delicious brunch and lunch fare with local fresh ingredients, an excellent wine list. Vegetarian and vegan options available. The venue is historic and across from the Steam Clock with peekaboo water views. Enter Water St Cafe and ask for 2nd Floor Gastown's jazz brunch, and wait staff will guide you up the stairs to a hideaway in the city.
Angela Verbrugge caught listeners' ears with her debut album (released on NYC's Gut String Records) and she won this year's JazzTimes Readers' Poll in the female jazz vocalist category. The magazine's review of her album describes that Angela, who takes inspiration from vintage musicals, the swing era, blues, and bebop, has "conspicuously good taste". Toronto Music Report writes that she is "a gem of a vocalist who makes all her chosen material sound magical. Her song-writing collaborations have received features in JAZZIZ Magazine. JazzWeekly describes the former actress as "fun and quirky, hip and a hoot, wispy and romantic; she slithers and oozes, and cleverly swings."

For the brunch performance, Angela performs with Canadian jazz pianist Jillian Lebeck. Jillian is one of the most dynamic and exciting voices on the Canadian Jazz scene. She is an alumni of the prestigious Berklee College of Music.
