Event Description

Caravan World Rhythms presents the joyous Afro-Latin Jazz music of Robin Layne and the Rhythm Makers from Vancouver. Join us for an intimate matinee concert at the Mint in downtown Victoria, where you can enjoy a delicious meal and beverages before or during the concert presentation. All Ages are Welcome! (bring the family!).

With roots in rhythmic traditions around the globe this groove heavy ensemble delivers music that transcends the bounds of tradition, blurring the lines between jazz and folk as they carve out new territory for the marimba at the forefront of the sonic landscape. They have been making a name for themselves on the festival circuit over the past few years since their debut release Memories in 2018, appearing on the main stage at Mission Folk Festival this past summer and at the Downtown Jazz, Vancouver International Jazz Festival.

Over the past decade and a half, Juno nominated percussionist Robin Layne has steeped himself in rhythmic traditions around the world from Cuba to West Africa to Mexico and beyond. He brings these influences to bear in his compositions that are inspired by his travels. Robin has worked with many of Canada’s finest global artists and toured throughout China, Europe, Mexico, USA and Canada.

The band’s upcoming sophomore album is produced by award winning and cutting edge folk fiddler/producer Jaron Freeman-Fox and draws heavily from the folkloric marimba traditions in Mexico and Colombia.

Joining Robin Layne are Liam MacDonald on drums, Jocelyn Waugh on trumpet, and Wynston Minckler on bass.
