Weather Permitting Season Finale w/ Big Blitz

* Moneka had to cancel, but BIG BLITZ will be headlining now.

Weather Permitting presented by Hazelwood Local rounds out our third year of programming with Moneka Arabic Jazz, Big Blitz and Ishtar.

“MONEKA ARABIC JAZZ” is a project reflecting my life and journey in art from Baghdad to Toronto. It showcases melody from my homeland Iraq mixed with African groove and rhythm that I inherited from the Moneka Family. Because my journey brought me now in Toronto Canada, I am honoured to share this heritage and traditions with local Canadian musicians. Jazz and blues is the best genre to bridge my afro-arabic background and the fascinating musical diversity of torontonian performers. I often find inspiration to write songs by researching old stories from Iraq as realities of the present moment locally or internationally. Focussing on the past inspires analysis, while the future
inspires visions and dreams.
