Saturday Night at The Rex

"Where Jazz musicians come to hear Jazz"

This quote heads up the website for The Rex, a Toronto institution. The website goes on to say;      




Since the late '80s, the Rex has been at the forefront of Toronto's thriving local jazz scene. The casual atmosphere, eclectic mix of retro-chic decor, and an exciting variety of draught beer combine to make The Rex feel like a second home.


At The Rex, we stay true to our motto: "More Great Jazz than anywhere else, all the time!"


The band we listened to and the one pictured above is "The Sidewinders." 


A Sample of their music (also at The Rex) can be found at:
