Show Notes

Bassist Mike Downes is one of Canada’s most accomplished jazz musicians, who has performed and recorded alongside a murderers’ row of top international talent.

Although he’s based out of Toronto, Mike was born and raised right here in Winnipeg!

Here's our chat about his new record, ‘The Way In’, loving King Crimson, making a record without drums, and much more!
