Josh Cohen live in Toronto

Experience Josh Cohen live on October 23rd

Josh Cohen will be performing at Annette Studios in Toronto, Ontario on October 23, 2026. Cohen is a jazz saxophonist and composer known for his improvisational approach and explorations within the realms of free jazz, post-bop, and avant-garde music. His work often incorporates elements of textural soundscapes and extended techniques, drawing influence from both traditional jazz masters and contemporary experimental musicians. He has released several albums as a leader and sideman on labels such as Skirl Records and No Idea Festival Recordings.

Annette Studios is a multi-disciplinary arts venue located in the Junction Triangle neighbourhood of Toronto. Originally constructed as a film and television studio in the 1970s, it served various production companies over the decades. In recent years, it was reimagined as a performance space and creative hub, hosting events encompassing music, dance, theatre, visual arts, and community gatherings. The studio retains much of its original industrial aesthetic – featuring high ceilings, exposed brick, and a flexible layout – contributing to its unique atmosphere. It’s become recognized for presenting diverse programming with an emphasis on emerging and independent artists.
