Calgary vocalist Aimee-Jo Benoit has established herself as a sought after vocalist in the jazz community. In June 2020, Benoit released BORJONER, a collection of arrangements of all Canadian folk, pop and rock with Trio Velocity. This past March 29, she released her sophomore effort, Horns of Hope on Chronograph Records. The album’s 8 tracks are all Canadian, featuring compositions by Sarah Harmer, Joni Mitchell, Daniel Lanois, Leonard Cohen, Kathleen Edwards and K.D Lang, with arrangements by Calgary’s Carsten Rubeling. This is not an unusual course for the bandleaders, Benoit and Rubeling, whose previous Canadian explorations together in the Both Sides Now Ensemble is what sparked this new collaborative project.
