Betty Davis was one of the most important voices of 1970’s funk….a flamboyant pop diva a full decade before there was such a thing, with a discography full of sexually aggressive and incredibly funky tunes that weren’t hits, but should have been.

She’s long been an influence on Vancouver based keyboardist, producer, and all-around phenom Mary Ancheta, which has led Mary to this special night at Hero’s Welcome full of Davis’ most loved tunes, as well as some deep cuts.

For this can’t miss show, Mary’s MAQkestra will feature:

Mary Ancheta – Keys

Dominic Conway – Saxophones

Feven Kidane – Trumpet

Tristan Paxton – Guitar

Matt Reid – Bass

Paul Clark – Drums

As well as extremely special guest vocalists:

Dawn Pemberton

Leo D.E. Johnson

Krystle Dos Santos

This performance is presented by Infidels Jazz, and will be at Hero’s Welcome: 3917 Main Street.

Thursday, October 17
