Jordan Hart / Misery Mountain Boys

7 p.m. Jordan Hart
Jordan Hart is a Gold-certified producer/singer-songwriter living in Toronto, Canada. His sound is often categorized as Contemporary/Roots with influences of Soul. Featured on YouTube performance platforms Mahogany, SOFAR and Alex Rainbird’s ‘Best of Folk’ series, as well as on Canadian mainstream television channels CTV, ETalk, Breakfast TV and Entertainment Tonight, Hart’s critically acclaimed music has struck a chord amongst tastemakers, and now has over 32 million streams across platforms. The emotive cinematic soundscapes of his music made their way from studio to screen as his single “Whole” was featured on Grey’s Anatomy and Manifest. His single “Freedom” also featured on American Idol as well as an award-winning animated short called, ‘Free Bird,’ which doubles as the song’s music video. Hart’s music can also be found across Canadian radio stations with his latest single, “Get to You,” cracking Top 10 on CBC and his collaboration with Lucky Rose titled “Lost,” making it into Canada’s Top 40.

While it’s easy to talk about Hart's recent success as a recording artist, his live performance is what he has come to be known for. Before the pandemic, Hart completed a 100–Day Busking Challenge in which he played on streetcorners across Canada, often garnering audiences in the hundreds of unexpecting passers-by. While Hart is now a veteran headliner and is selling out shows across the country, you can still find him playing outside on the odd summer day where he first fell in love with performing music.

Beyond his work as a solo artist, Hart is gaining an impressive track record as a producer and composer for other artists, working with the likes of Bulow, Kiesza, Lucky Rose, French Braids, Sugar Jesus and Lonely in the Rain to name a few. While he continues to compose and produce for other artists, he has just begun working on his first full-length album which is scheduled to be released in early 2024

8 p.m. The Misery Mountain Boys
You might hear the tunes of the Misery Mountain Boys drifting from behind a rotating bookcase of a 1930’s speakeasy. Harkening back to a simpler time, the MMB’s create a collaborative soundscape infused with tongue in cheek wit, playfulness, and nostalgia. With a mix of catchy originals and contemporary songs reimagined in driving swing, the band’s performance delivers as both classic and fresh, offering a generous variety of sweaty jazz numbers, velvety love songs, and swingin' jump-blues.
