About Samuel Bonnet
Celebrated by international jazz critics and presenters, Samuel Bonnet brings his acclaimed trio on tour for an evening of exquisite guitar playing and beautifully crafted contemporary jazz.
Since appearing in the Quebec Showcase at the prestigious Jazzahead! trade show in Bremen, Germany, in 2023, Bonnet has been building a reputation across Europe and Canada for what critics call his “luminous, meticulous technique” and the “raw authenticity” of his playing.
His forthcoming album, SLOW (October 2026), features renowned New York trumpeter Joe Magnarelli. A 2025 tour of Italy and upcoming European performances further reflect his growing presence on the international jazz scene.
This concert is part of the SLOW album-launch tour across Western and Central Canada. Expect an evening of intimate musical conversation — the kind that happens when exceptional musicians come together in a small room!
